In this project, we show you how to 3D print and assemble your very own Alexa connected curtain control system. It's low cost and easy to build.
👇 More info below 👇

It's based on an ESP8266 Adafruit Feather Huzzah, which connects to Alexa using its onboard wifi chip. If you're into home automation its an ideal addition to your gadgetry.
