# Joke Fetcher

Day 96 of the 100 Days 100 IoT Projects collection. Board: ESP32.

An ESP32 pulls a fresh joke from the JokeAPI over HTTP. REST APIs on a microcontroller, with punchlines.

## How it works

The ESP32 makes an HTTP GET to the JokeAPI, parses the JSON response, and shows the punchline. It is the friendliest possible introduction to REST APIs on a microcontroller — real network code, with laughter as the test output.

## What you'll learn

- REST API consumption
- JSON parsing on MCU
- HTTP client patterns
- API-driven projects
