Perform OTAs for ESP8266 & ESP32 Asynchronously
AsyncElegantOTA provides a beautiful interface to upload Over the Air `.bin` updates to your ESP Modules with precise status and progress displayed over UI. This Library shows the current upload progress of your OTA and once finished, it will display the status of your OTA. This Version of Library uses AsyncWebServer. Thanks to @me-no-dev for a wonderful webserver library.

Documentation
AsyncElegantOTA is a dead simple library which does your work in just 1 Line. Honestly, It's just a wrapper library which injects it's own elegant webpage instead of the ugly upload page which comes by default in Arduino Library.
Include AsyncElegantOTA Library `#include ` at top of your Arduino Code.
Paste this - `AsyncElegantOTA.begin(&server);` line above your `server.begin();`
That's all!
Now copy the IPAddress displayed over your Serial Monitor and go to `http:///update` in browser. ( where `` is the IP of your ESP Module)
#### Additional Security:
If you would like to add login to your OTA webpage, then please replace `AsyncElegantOTA.begin(&server);` with `AsyncElegantOTA.begin(&server, "username", "password");`. This will prevent unauthorized requests to your OTA webpage and prevent unauthorized firmware upload to your MCU.
Antivirus Issue: If you have an antivirus on your PC with internet security, the progress bar on webpage will instantly show 100% because of request caching by your antivirus software. There is no fix for this unless you want to disable your antivirus or whitelist your local IP addresses in it. ( Same is the case with iOS, safari will cache the outgoing requests )

Examples
For ESP8266:
```
#include
#include
#include
#include
const char* ssid = "........";
const char* password = "........";
AsyncWebServer server(80);
void setup(void) {
Serial.begin(115200);
WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
Serial.println("");
// Wait for connection
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(500);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("");
Serial.print("Connected to ");
Serial.println(ssid);
Serial.print("IP address: ");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
server.on("/", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest *request) {
request->send(200, "text/plain", "Hi! I am ESP8266.");
});
AsyncElegantOTA.begin(&server); // Start ElegantOTA
server.begin();
Serial.println("HTTP server started");
}
void loop(void) {
}
```
For ESP32:
```
#include
#include
#include
#include
const char* ssid = "........";
const char* password = "........";
AsyncWebServer server(80);
void setup(void) {
Serial.begin(115200);
WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
Serial.println("");
// Wait for connection
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(500);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("");
Serial.print("Connected to ");
Serial.println(ssid);
Serial.print("IP address: ");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
server.on("/", HTTP_GET, [](AsyncWebServerRequest *request) {
request->send(200, "text/plain", "Hi! I am ESP32.");
});
AsyncElegantOTA.begin(&server); // Start ElegantOTA
server.begin();
Serial.println("HTTP server started");
}
void loop(void) {
}
```
