#78674 I have been using the ESP-01 with some success using the AT interface - not actually progaming the ESP firmware. I downloaded and looked at the arduino ide and the examples seem to require a Wiznet W5100 board. I saw no AT commands at all. Am I looking in the right place?

#78680 Yes, I think you are not looking in the right place :)

Under File/Examples, scroll down and look for the ESP8266 folder, such as ESP8266WebServer and ESP8266WiFi.

Cheers,
John

#78691 I haven't actually installed it yet. I was looking in the library examples subdirectory of the ZIP file I downloaded from arduino. I will install it and see if anything new shows up.

It does seem that arduino definitely has a different way of doing things. Looks like all the libraries are #included in as source and compiled as one big file.

This allows for new functionality/flexibility/customizations. You are not stuck with whatever code came from the factory.
