EasyNTPClient

Collaborizm Build Status

Arduino library to read time from Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers.

 

Features

  • Handles all heavy lifting involved with managing connections to and parsing time from an NTP server.
  • As easy as providing a UDP object to the constructor during initialization.
  • Works on Arduino and ESP8266.
