A robust MicroPython application for ESP32 controlling the KC868-AP dimmer/relay hardware with native Home Assistant MQTT discovery.

That’s a solid project! Using MicroPython on the ESP32 with native Home Assistant MQTT discovery makes integration smooth and efficient. Great way to control the KC868-AP dimmer and relay hardware seamlessly.

Looks like a clean setup. I’m curious whether you’ve tested how it handles reconnections when WiFi drops, since ESP32 projects often run into that.
