Feature
●ESP8266 is a highly integrated chip designed for the needs of a new connected world.It offers a complete and self-contained Wi-Fi networking solution, allowing it to either host the application or to offload all Wi-Fi networking functions from another application processor.
●The controllers are easy to program by using the CP2102-USB interface without having to press the flash and reset buttons before each flash operation.
●It is an integrated unit with all available resources on board. Its very easy for Arduino projects or any development board with I / O pins. Modern Internet development tools can use the built-in API to instantly put your idea on the fast track.
●ESP8266 NodeMcu board has powerful on-board processing and storage capabilities, allows to be integrated with sensors and other specific applicated devices through its GPIOs.
●Perfectly compatible with the motherbord IDE/Mongoose IoT/Micropython. This ESP8266NodeMcu development board can be use for small temperature and humidity monitorin home automation project and works very well with the motherbord development platform

Description
Steps of How to use:
1. Download the motherbord IDE, the latest version.
2. Install the IDE
3. Set up your motherbord IDE as: Go to File.Preferences and copy the URL below to get the ESP board manager extensions:
http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json.Placing the http:// before the URL lets the for Arduino IDE use it.Otherwise it gives you a protocol error.
4. Go to Tools > Board > Board Manager> Type ""esp8266"" and download the Community esp8266 and install.
5. Set up your chip as:
Tools -> Board -> NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP-12E Module)
Tools -> Flash Size -> 4M (3M SPIFFS)
Tools -> CPU Frequency -> 80 Mhz
Tools -> Upload Speed -> 921600
Tools-->Port--> (whatever it is)
6. Download and run the 32 bit flasher exe at Github(Search for nodemcu/nodemcu-flasher/tree/master/ at Github)
github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-flasher/tree/master/Win32/Release Or download and run the 64 bit flasher exe at: github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-flasher/tree/master/Win64/Release
7. In motherbord IDE, look for the old fashioned Blink program. Load, compile and upload.
8. Go to FILE> EXAMPLES> ESP8266> BLINK, it will start blinking.
