Has anyone used esp8266 to control Hue lights

[FFMan]

Should be straightforward enough as Hue bridge is a simple webserver and Hue is controlled via json commands.

Just wondered if anyone has done it ?

This project used an Wemos Mini esp8266 and a python library that made the esp8266 appear to Alexa as a Hue controller. This project is probably far from what you want but it may provide a starting point for you.

that is interesting and i'll read and digest. More Alexa focussed but i might do that later also.

I found this which covers a lot.

i could either convert the principals to zbasic on esp8266 using the TCPClient example as a starting point, or use the arduino code as it stands as a basis

The Wemos is programmed using the Arduino programming suite so it shouldn't be too much to use the code you found on the Wemos for your project.
