As the serial shutter cable hack (set RTS to high and switch a transistor) is not stable and harms all serial communication protocol standards I built a version using a ESP8266 and relays triggered by a amplified pin of it. I added a FTDI serial to usb adaptor (not wanted to use the serial of the NodeMCU) to support this ugly hack in the first step. Next step would be to avoid using this serial communication stuff anymore due to the esp is able to provide a web api controlling the whole thing. I wonder how to get started adding the ability to configure it. Can anyone provide me some help here? https://github.com/superdachs/NikonShutterController
