It's easier to develop when you don't need to reconnect to the device AP every time you restart it (and lose access to internet). But once complete, this should be set up as an access point so you don't need a wireless network and config file to get it going.

The simplest way is to set an option at the top of the program, but maybe take a note from https://github.com/dl9sau/TTGO-T-Beam-LoRa-APRS and SQ9MDD and make it an option on the webform (with required restart).

There's a way to set the hostname so you don't need the IP, but another way would be to flash the IP in Morse on boot if attaching to wifi.

Still need user to fill in wifi credentials though, if they want to hook up to an existing network.
