I keep losing my TV remote and then spend embarrassing amount of time searching for it... So I figured, obviously I'm not getting better at finding it, so I'll make the TV remote better! :) 
Enter ESP32 WiFi Remote. 

It was super easy project to build. Components are off-the-shelf and available online so if you have similar problem or find this project interesting, give it a go. It's really fun to make, you can learn a lot and also it's an awesome gadget to add to your collection.

As always, all the source files that you need to make one by yourself are available for download on: https://github.com/SasaKaranovic/esp32_wifi_remote

ESP32 board- https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=ESP32
(any variant should work)

IR Receiver - https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=IR%20Receiver
(You can most likely salvage one from an old IR controllable device)

IR transmitter - https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=IR%20LED
(940nm LED will work. You can also salvage it from an old remote)
