This is an Arduino sketch that connects to the Tibber API using GraphQL to retrieve data about the energy consumption of a Tibber user's home. The sketch uses the ESP8266WiFi library to connect to a Wi-Fi network and the WiFiClientSecure library to make secure HTTP requests to the Tibber API.

The sketch defines several constants at the beginning, including the Wi-Fi network SSID and password, the Tibber API endpoint URL, the port to connect to, and the user's access token for the Tibber API.

The initWiFi() function is called to connect to the Wi-Fi network. It waits until the connection is established and prints the local IP address to the serial monitor.

The executeGraphQLQuery() function is called to make a GraphQL request to the Tibber API. It creates a WiFiClientSecure object, sets it to be insecure (because the Tibber API uses a self-signed certificate), and connects to the API endpoint using the connect() method. It then sends a POST request with the GraphQL query in the request body, along with the authorization token and content type headers.

The response from the Tibber API is read and printed to the serial monitor for debugging purposes.

In the setup() function, a GraphQL query is defined as a multi-line string using the R"() syntax. The query requests the current subscription price info for the user's home.

Finally, the executeGraphQLQuery() function is called with the query string as an argument.
