ESP32 project to monitor and automate various small agriculture projects

The first use case will be opening and closing the chicken coop door. It should automatically open and close around sun rise/set and be monitored and manually controllable remotely.

My intention is to develop this into a modular framework to support a variety of home / garden / farm projects.

Create text file /src/secrets.h containing the password for the hosted wifi network.
