Flashing Espressif and NodeMCU Firmware to ESP8266

Basamma B — Sun, 28 Oct 2018 17:01:29 +0000

In the earlier articles, we have written our own program in Arduino IDE to access GPIO pins of ESP8266 or to interface sensors to ESP8266. But if we write our own program to access GPIO Pins, the existing firmware will be completely erased and the new program will be written on the ESP8266. So in this […]
