  • Turn ESP32 into a keyboard, connect it to WLAN

    I got it to work by having a python script that waits for specific packets then translates them to keystrokes. Python is compatible with Windows, Mac and of course Linux. The Keyboard library is very interesting and by using Python we can easily make wifi keyboards, controllers, etc. If you have control over the computer and can install python on it, this is easy to do. Here is my github project that shows a real world example. Receive.py is what you should look over. You don't have to use UDP, TCP would be more reliable but if it's just moving slides well then.... Yeah that's up to you lol.

  • Esphome with Arduino mega with built-in esp8266

    Longer answer: Maybe? With a lot of extra effort. It looks like someone has modified the ESPHome port expander code to be compatible, but from what I can gather, you would have to modify the source for ESPHome to replace those components with the modified versions and then rebuild it from source. That's a lot of effort for something that can be solved with multiple ESPHome boards or just using compatible port expander hardware.
