You're talking about the white adapter plates right? You don't necessarily need to add capacitors because some of the newer ESP12 modules already include bypass capacitors within the module now.
It seems hard to find official schematics of the ESP12 modules but the ESP-12F is often shown including some capacitors, eg here, and I've used them fine with the white adapter plates and an XC6206 regulator and no other capacitors. ESP-12S's also include pullup/down resistors too and work fine with just a regulator.
