Using ESP32 board to drive SSR with Robotdyn AC dimmer for ZCD

Has anyone done such a thing before because I'd like to control a pretty high powered heater of around 32A with a pot connected to the ESP32 board.

I've seen code for using the ESP32 with pots or with the Robotdyn dimmer board alone but never the Robotdyn, a pot and SSR.

My hardware used to be used with an Arduino / TC4+ shield and they worked fine but the fairly expensive TC4+ broke so I'm looking for a ESP32 alternative.

I'm no coder so looking at the TC4+ specific code and its various libraries only made things more confusing.

Hello,
I opened your post because of the robodyn mention... a disastrous experience but Ali refunded me....
As for the question, I don't doubt that an ESP can do ;
but ZCD? SSR?? TC4 ??? it would be nice to know what it is...
