That’s it, you’re ready to start building your own IoT projects with the ESP8266! Next, you might want to read: Getting started with ESP8266. This is a quick guide that illustrates how to prepare your Arduino IDE for the ESP8266 on a Windows PC, Mac OS X, or Linux computer. Press the “ ENABLE/RESET” button to restart the ESP8266 and run the new uploaded sketch. Your ESP8266 should have the new sketch running.

After that, you should see the “ Done uploading” message.

When you see the “ Connecting….” message in your Arduino IDE, release the finger from the “ BOOT/FLASH” button.

In your Arduino IDE, go to File> Preferences To install the ESP8266 board in your Arduino IDE, follow these next instructions: Having the latest Arduino IDE software installed from /en/Main/Software, continue with this tutorial.ĭo you need an ESP8266 board? You can buy it here. If you don’t, uninstall it and install it again. Prerequisites: Arduino IDE Installedīefore starting this installation procedure, make sure you have the latest version of the Arduino IDE installed in your computer. If you like the ESP8266 and want to build more projects, you can get my eBook: Home Automation using ESP8266.
