ESP32 with Neo-6M GPS Module: Hardware Serial Code & Practical Implementation Guide

In this project, I used the ESP32 WROOM-32 development board in combination with the Neo-6M GPS module to acquire real-time satellite-based location data. The hardware components were interconnected using hardware serial (UART) to ensure reliable communication between the ESP32 and the GPS module. The wiring setup is illustrated below.
