/*
    HTTP over TLS (HTTPS) example sketch

    This example demonstrates how to use
    WiFiClientSecure class to connect to a TLS server.

    This example verifies server certificate using the
    root CA certificate.

    We fetch and display the status of
    esp8266/Arduino project continuous integration
    build.

    Created by Ivan Grokhotkov, 2017.
