I am completely new to all of this and after hours and hours of searching online for an answer, I now turn to you with my greenhorn quest.

My first question is: what esp8266 or esp32 board is right if I dont have or dont want to use a breadboard? Is there a way to simply hook up to my computers USB for programming and for power?

ANy help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I would suggest the ESP8266 Node MCU (https://m.banggood.com/Geekcreit-Doit-N ... mds=search)

Based on my experience, its so easy to work with!
