ESP8266 Resources

lanternfish

The ESP8266 has been discussed in various threads and the one that brought them to my attention is http://forums.parallax.com/showthread.php/157430-Low-cost-wifi-module-ESP8266?highlight=esp8266.

localroger posted some solid code to play around with so I purchased a few ESP-05 and started experimenting with them. I have since purchased a few ESP-12 modules.

I hope others who are using the ESP8266 modules will post there experiences, code and resources to this thread.

EDIT: I will add resource links from other threads as time permits

Many users of the ESP8266 are developing firmware based on nodeMCU. Here is a link to the nodeMCU Github repository: https://github.com/nodemcu/
