I am building a project where I have a raspberry pi running a django webapp locally. When this raspberry pi connected to my home wifi, I can access this webapp from any computer that is on my home wifi.
My question:
If this raspberry pi is at a new users location, I would like the user to be able to access this webapp on their computer without having to plug the pi into a monitor or remote into it in order to connect to their network.
Ideally the raspberry pi could broadcast it's own wireless network which the users computer could connect to, then access the webapp. They could then input their actual network credentials into this app, then the raspberry pi would take these credentials and log onto the users network. (similar to how a chromecast is setup for the first time)
Does this sound possible?
I have seen a few tutorials online where people have turned a raspberry pi into a wireless router, but I'm not sure if the pi can broadcast a signal and be connected to that same signal simultaneously.
Thanks in advance for any guidance/info.
