ESP8266 Programming Using Arduino IDE
The ESP8266 can be programmed using the Arduino IDE. The best part is the codes are similar to Arduino. To start programming a ESP8266 using Arduino IDE follow the below steps Prerequisites Arduino 1.6.8, get it from Arduino website. Steps Start Arduino and goto File-> Preferences. In the “Additional Boards Manager URLs” Enter http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json (You… Continue reading ESP8266 Programming Using Arduino IDE
ESP 8266 – ESP-12E Hello World – Blinking LED
We are using Arduino IDE to program our ESP8266. Please see this article regarding how to setup the Arduino IDE for programming ESP8266. Here is a blinking LED code for ESP8266 written in Arduino IDE. #define ESP8266_LED 5 void setup() { pinMode(ESP8266_LED, OUTPUT); } void loop() { digitalWrite(ESP8266_LED, HIGH); delay(500); digitalWrite(ESP8266_LED,… Continue reading ESP 8266 – ESP-12E Hello World – Blinking LED
