/*************************************************************
  Download latest Blynk library here:
    https://github.com/blynkkk/blynk-library/releases/latest
  Blynk is a platform with iOS and Android apps to control
  Arduino, Raspberry Pi and the likes over the Internet.
  You can easily build graphic interfaces for all your
  projects by simply dragging and dropping widgets.

 *************************************************************
  This example runs directly on ESP8266 chip.
  Note: This requires ESP8266 support package:
    https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino
  Please be sure to select the right ESP8266 module
  in the Tools -> Board menu!
  Change WiFi ssid, pass, and Blynk auth token to run :)
  Feel free to apply it to any other example. It's simple!
