#79461 First off, I don't know how to code. I'm trying to do this: https://learn.adafruit.com/huzzah-weath ... y?view=all.

When I try to upload the code (https://github.com/andydoro/Huzzah-Weat ... er-Display) it gives me this error:


Code: Select allArduino: 1.8.8 (Windows 10), Board: "Adafruit Feather HUZZAH ESP8266, 80 MHz, Flash, 4M (1M SPIFFS), v2 Lower Memory, Disabled, None, Only Sketch, 115200"

Sketch uses 249632 bytes (23%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1044464 bytes.
Global variables use 27700 bytes (33%) of dynamic memory, leaving 54220 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 81920 bytes.

This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.


I have the exact same components as in the guide except the USB to serial cable, which is this: https://www.optimusdigital.ro/ro/interf ... esults=147.

The connections are:
TXD to TX
RXD to RX
GND to GND
5V to v+
DTR/RST to the hole below TX
(I think that's RST, but there is one on the side, should I solder it and connect it?)


When I connect TXD to RXD and type something in the serial monitor the text shows up, so it's transfering data ( I think ).
