The EasyESP-1 is a beginner-friendly development board for the ESP8266 Wi-Fi microcontroller, based on the ESP-12E module. It includes an onboard USB-to-serial converter (CP2102) so you can program and debug directly over USB — no additional hardware required.

All GPIO pins are broken out to 2.54 mm (0.1″) female headers and standard Grove/Crowtail connectors for plug-and-play sensor hookup. A built-in 180-point breadboard provides space for prototyping external circuits alongside the ESP8266.

Key Features

• ESP-12E Module – ESP8266 with Wi-Fi, programmed via Arduino IDE or Lua
• Onboard USB-UART – CP2102 for easy programming and serial debugging
• 180-Point Breadboard – Built-in prototyping area
• Grove/Crowtail Connectors – Plug-and-play sensor and module connections
• 3.3 V Regulated Supply – Onboard LDO, up to 800 mA
• User I/O – 2 tactile switches, 1 LED, and a sleep wake-up slide switch
• Full GPIO Access – All pins on 2.54 mm female headers
