Building my own thermostat so I have total control was a fun project, I learned a lot about electrical engineering and built a circuit with some TRIACs to control the HVAC lines. Though I still need to give it an interface so I can program it some way other than uploading the program as a JSON blob to my raspberry pi!

This has been on my project list for a long time haha, would you happen to have any blog posts or references for those of us who aspire to do the same?

Sorry for the late reply! Hmm, I don't have any particular posts I followed on hand, but I learned a lot by watching ElectroBOOM and Ben Eater's videos on YouTube. A general background in C++ development made getting started with Arduino code (you can use arduino frameworks for chips like the ESP8266) a snap as well
