How can a user insert username & password in ESP8266 device

I want to make a circuit, a thermometer with WEMOS D1 mini pro 1.0.0.
And I want it to have the capability to 'receive' the username & the password from the client.
(the client, somehow (connecting to a pc maybe? I don't know), to be able to 'write' them in my device).
How can this be done?
(I think e.g. in Sonoff the client can 'insert' them somehow)

Hi. The exact way you configure this will depend on how you're programming it. If there isnt any documentation for the default whatever progrmming language comes on the wemos as standard, then you might try installing esp8266basic as a get you started tool. But really if it was me i'd start by reading an instructable or something like that to begin with. Google really is your friend here... good luck!

I know how to make a device with ESP8266.
There, I put my (WiFi) SSID and password in the code.

I don 't want this.
I want to make a device where my client (the buyer of the device) will be able to put his own (WiFi) credentials (SSID and password).
How can I do this?

EDIT: ok, I discovered the WiFiManager, if I have any problem I will post here.
