Make testing after programming your ESP8266 easy.

ESP8266 pinout makes it incompatible with proto boards without an adapter. It's programmer and breakthrough in one. Add some LEDs directly to this board to immediately test the on/off program functions. CH340C USB-to-Serial drivers are automatically loaded in Win 10.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Not intuitive but works

I've found enough content online to figure out how to use it. It is very comfortable; Plug it into a USB port, plug in the Wi-Fi module, upload it using the Arduino utility and you're done.

Pros
  • Special
Cons
  • So-so

It was not said to ground the GPIO0 pin.

. I had to ground GPIO0 to charge it. Although this fact was obvious in the esp8266 data sheet, everyone here claims its plug and play without mentioning it. So it hit me. I gave it three stars as something like this should have a QA. I would save newbies so much time.

Pros
  • . High marks for support and durability from testers.
Cons
  • . Neutral

Best USB to UART for ESP8266 programming

This is the most convenient USB to UART adapter I've seen for ESP8266. It can control the RESET and GPIO0 of the ESP8266, making flashing completely automatic and painless with most flashing tools. UART is already supported by the Linux kernel shipped with Ubuntu 20.04. You don't need to install anything, just plug and play. For Windows 10, the drivers are loaded automatically after connecting to USB. It's cheaper and much more convenient than, for example, FTDI USB-UART. I've flashed this UART

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
