Well I’ve got esp too but pi is much easier to troubleshoot and program


What are you running on your ESP? Are you using https://github.com/FreeRTOS or arduino? Low level embedded is harder for sure.


I’m using ESPHome extension for home assistant which has been fantastic because you can flash code on over the air and the initial flash can be done from a browser

(Which still blows my mind)


Yeah the ESP is like what I wanted in the arduino. A WiFi module would have cost so much more for that hardware.
