#33395 Last week I tried load espruino on my generic esp 12E and 13 but did not succeed...

Do you have to have a special breakout board?

#33397 Not at all. Any ESP8266 device that you can load arbitrary firmware upon today can be the target for loading Espruino. At least that has been our experience so far and we can't think of any reasons why this would be otherwise.

We have a sample video here illustrating loading the Espruino firmware ... see:

This video illustrates the use of the tool called "NodeMCU Flasher" but other flasher tools will also work.

#33485 tried on esp-12e and esp-201

I never see ESPRUNIO msg when connected, I just see connected >
I cannot key in any input -----
if I change baud to 115200 I get undefined on web ide

I must be missing something

#33486 The baud rate for Espruino is set to be 115200. When you say that when you use 115200 and you get "undefined", please realize that this may not be an error and exactly what one might expect. See the following FAQ entry:

http://www.espruino.com/FAQ

"WHEN I TYPE A COMMAND, WHY DOES ESPRUINO PRINT '=UNDEFINED'?"

Might this be what you are seeing?
