What it is

Write custom firmware for ESP8266 and ESP32 devices.

What you can make with it

Automations for smart home devices, like turning lights on/off with a voice command, or sending notifications when someone leaves home.

How it helps

Tasmota provides a flexible, open-source platform for automating smart devices, allowing you to customize and integrate them with various protocols.

Real use case example

"A founder wants to create a smart home system. She starts by flashing Tasmota firmware onto her ESP32 devices, configures them to integrate with her home automation hub through MQTT protocol, and then sets up custom automations to turn lights on/off based on motion sensors, which she controls remotely using her smartphone. With Tasmota, she saves time and money by avoiding custom development from scratch."

If you're new

Pick this up if you're new to home automation or IoT projects and want to learn the basics.

If you're senior

Use Tasmota when you need to customize or integrate ESP devices into a larger IoT ecosystem, or develop new smart home automation features.

Common confusion cleared up

Tasmota is often mistaken for a proprietary firmware, but it's actually a completely open-source platform and can be used as an alternative to commercial automation systems.

Why we list it on WorkflowStacks: Tasmota is here because it's a popular, widely-used automation platform for ESP devices.
What it does

Tasmota is a firmware that allows for local automation control of ESP32 and ESP8266 devices, enabling entirely local control over MQTT, HTTP, Serial, or KNX protocols.

Install / run
Flash the Tasmota firmware onto your ESP32 or ESP8266 device using a tool like esptool.py, with a command such as 'esptool.py --chip esp32 --baud 115200 --before default_reset write_flash -z --flash_mode dio --flash_freq 40m --flash_size detect 0x10000 tasmota.bin'
When to use it
  • •When you need to automate IoT devices without relying on cloud services
  • •When you want to control ESP32 or ESP8266 devices using a web-based interface
  • •When you require local control over devices using MQTT, HTTP, Serial, or KNX protocols
Quick start
  1. 1Access the Tasmota web interface by navigating to the device's IP address in a web browser, typically at 'http://192.168.4.1'
  2. 2Configure the device's Wi-Fi settings by clicking on 'Configuration' and then 'Wi-Fi' in the web interface
  3. 3Set up automation rules using the 'Rules' section in the web interface, with syntax such as 'ON Power1#State DO Toggle Power2 IF Power1#State = 1'
  4. 4Update the firmware using the 'Firmware Upgrade' option in the web interface, to ensure you have the latest features and security updates
  5. 5Use the 'Console' section in the web interface to send commands to the device, such as 'mqtt pub cmnd/sonoff/Power1 TOGGLE'
Ready-to-paste prompt
ON Power1#State DO Publish2 tele/sonoff/POWER1 IF Power1#State = 1
Heads up: After flashing the Tasmota firmware, the device will reset to its default IP address of 192.168.4.1, so you will need to access it at this address to configure the Wi-Fi settings and avoid having to re-flash the device
