Feature request: Automatically start wifi hotspot
Having Craftbeerpi as headless without any screen and relying on WiFi connection can be an hassle. Maybe you gotten new router, new password or in a different location.
Changing wifi password is not easy to do either.
I would suggest an option that if no network is detected it will create its own hotspot.
Great idea - can be very useful

So I followed the install instruction on the link provided.
When I start the RPi3 without ethernet plugged in it succesfully creates an hotspot I`m able to connect to.
But when trying to access Craftbeerpi @ 192.168.50.5:5000 ( Which is the RPi IP address" it fails to connect.
Any idea if this is Craftbeerpi fault or the provided script?
Check with netstat -lntp where the python process is listening

So I started and stopped Craftbeerpi and then it works.
But after a reboot now both SSH and Craftbeerpi is refusing connection.
This is more of an issue for the operating system. If you change your Wifi router you can simply turn off the Raspberry Pi, connect the SD card to a computer that can read the filesystem and manually change the settings in the wpa_supplicant configuration.
