About ESP8266

The ESP8266 integrates a 160 MHz microcontroller with a full Wi-Fi front-end (both as client and access point) and TCP/IP stack with DNS support as well. Though it was originally created as an adaptor to convert the one-bit-at-a-time serial communication used by most wired computer systems into free-flowing Wi-Fi radio signals, and despite the original documentation was almost entirely in Chinese, hardware enthusiasts around the world quickly realized that ESP8266 wasn’t limited to that niche use. ESP8266's flexibility and price point have driven its explosion of use.
