ESP8266 as usual MCU in Flowcode

Post by Sergejs »

Hello,

Can it be possible to make a ESP8266 based on ESP-12 like usual MCU. For example like PIC16F628A. It be nice to make any experiments with this board. Is it hard to make it possible?

Hello

The main problem is the tool chain. The official one recommends linux and not Windows. There is a way using visual studio but this is a lot to install to get it working.

It's on our list and hopefully espressif are working on merging the esp8266 and esp32 tool chains which would simplify things.
