I decided to use my TTGO ESP32 module as an Instagram Followers Counter.
You can build it as well with an ESP32 dev module and an SSD1306 OLED display.
Supplies:
1 ESP dev board
1 SSD1306 OLED display
4 jumper wires
Step 1: Wiring
OLED Module -> ESP32
GND pin -> GND pin
VCC pin -> 3.3V pin
SCL pin -> D4 pin
SDA pin -> D5 pin
Step 2: Code
Donwnload the code.
Edit your WIFI credentials (SSID and password).
Edit your Instagram username.
Optional:
Edit NTP_OFFSET to match your timezone.
Upload the code.
