ESP8266 Community Forum

- Fri Dec 28, 2018 3:48 am #79748 I'm trying to get started with an esp8266 WiFi module. What i'm trying to achieve is using a WiFi module to send and receive send data to a device which is connected to the module. At present the data send and received are through serial port communication. I'm trying to replace it with a WiFi module. And after achieving this, in future, we could be able to communicate with the device via wifi module through internet. i am kind of stuck here. I have looked through a lot a tutorials, but most of them are incomplete. Where should I start. Can i use an arduino to program the wifi? Or I need to program the esp module directly as shown in some tutorials.
