About this board
At its core is the Espressif ESP8266 - a single-core Xtensa L106 running at up to 160 MHz with roughly 80 KB of usable RAM and integrated 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi paired with 4 MB of flash.
Development uses the familiar ESP8266 toolchain - the Arduino core, MicroPython, or Espressif's SDK - with esptool for flashing and OTA update support, so the large ecosystem of ESP8266 libraries and tutorials applies directly.
