The ESP8266 is a popular low-cost Wi-Fi module that is widely used in IoT and embedded systems. MicroPython is a popular implementation of Python for embedded systems, and it has gained popularity as a programming language for the ESP8266. In this category, you can learn about programming the ESP8266 using MicroPython, including how to set up the development environment, connect to Wi-Fi, work with GPIO pins, and create web servers. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced developer, these tutorials will help you get started with ESP8266 MicroPython development.
Here is a beginner’s guide to MicroPython development on the ESP8266 and ESP32 boards using PyCharm IDE. It covers the basics of MicroPython, firmware flashing, and how to set up PyCharm for remote MicroPython development. Additionally, the article includes an example project that demonstrates how to control an LED using MicroPython code.
Here an article that provides a step-by-step guide for getting started with MicroPython development on the ESP8266 and ESP32 boards using the Thonny IDE. The article covers how to flash MicroPython firmware onto the board and how to connect to the board using Thonny’s MicroPython plugin. Additionally, the article includes an example project that demonstrates how to control an LED connected to the board using MicroPython code.
This guide focuses on using MicroPython with ESP8266 and ESP32 microcontrollers, two popular choices for IoT and embedded systems. By understanding the standard instruments available with MicroPython, such as Python, esptool, ampy, PuTTY, and screen, you can quickly and easily build projects for these powerful devices. This guide will provide an overview of each tool and how to use them effectively, so you can take full advantage of the capabilities of your ESP8266 or ESP32 microcontroller.
