    @Frida yes, I see now. Thank you.

    Yes, this crashed the Chip :) It output some error that LED1 wasn't found. But I've created now an WIFI Connection and played a bit around with some API commands. Works like a charm.

    @Frida @Robin @MaBe Thanks a lot for helping hands.

    I have one ESP-01 and one ESP-01S Chip. (Wikipedia say, it has 1MB ?!)
    The Command you post is for 4MB, isn't it?

    If I use your command, I got this response:

    But now I got a connection. Thanks a lot. I'm so happy now to get the first connection :)

    Do you have a tiny test-script for me to upload something?
    Is there a documentation to see which commands are supported for the different Chip-types like esp-01, esp-01s, esp32-cam, node-mcu and so on?

    @Frida Thanks a lot for your step-by-step introduction.
    I've now

    1. erased the flash
    2. download and unpack this Package: https://www.espruino.com/Download
    3. Re-Plugin the Stick

    If I start the ESPruino Web-IDE and connect the Chip, I see that the Chip output something... all the time:

    But uploading the example-blink-Script doesn't work. Returend Prompt not detected - upload failed. Trying to recover...

    If I do the following:

    1. run esptool.py --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --baud 115200 write_flash --flash_freq 40m --flash_mode qio --flash_size 1MB 0x0000 "boot_v1.6.bin" 0x1000 espruino_esp8266_user1.bin 0xFC000 esp_init_data_default.bin 0xFE000 blank.bin
    2. Re-Plugin the Stick
    3. Connect to Web-IDE.... but even if I re-plugin, or start in Flash-Mode (by pressing button on Plugin), I can't upload the example-script. I always got Prompt not detected - upload failed. Trying to recover...

    So what I've done wrong?

    BTW: I didn't found the place to change Baud-Setting in Chrome-Web-IDE.

    @Robin "flashed" means something like: happy, overwhelmed, impressed ....
    As I'm a Mobile & Web-Developer, I'm very familiar with JS, so I'm glad to see that it's possible to use it for ESP-programming too.

    This was the link I've missed to add... means the HowTo I've followed: https://www.espruino.com/Quick+Start+USB­

    I've also ordered some other chipset like esp-12, NodeMCU... but first I wan't to start with this tiny one. The single gpio-Output on the esp-01 fit's my needs (I think so) for a tiny first Project.

    So maybe you can give me some general hints for the first Steps.
    For the ESP-01 (and maybe other chipsets), what are the steps to work with it?
    Is it like this:

    1. Put Chip in Flash-Mode
    2. Upload firmware especially for this Ship
    3. Upload Espruino firmware
    4. Upload code, which do something on the chip (for espruino it's js, arduino it's C ?)

    I've still ordered a bunch of esp-Chipsets before I was aware that Espruino exist. So I wan't first go with this stuff, instead of buying additional Stuff like Pico or other thinks.
    Because I'm at the very beginning of this hobby... You know what I mean?

    Hi there,
    I have ordered some esp chipsets and got it last week.
    Today I found Espruino and was totally flashed, that I can code with JS on the chipset.

    I have the Mini-Breadboard HW-305 and ESP-01S plugged on it. (It's the same hardware like in this Video (from 0:00 till 0:30) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uaIWZCR­Sz8

    ).

    Now I try to connect it to the Espruino-Web-IDE, but without success. Because I use Linux, I've followed the instructions to add my user to plugdev group and re-login to get this new permissions active.

    Then I've opened the Espruino-Web-IDE in Chrome and click the yellow Button above.
    I see an Popup with the USB-Port, but if I choose this, I got an error:"Connection failed".

    In the Settings ⇒ Console, I see this:

    We have chrome.serial - not using 'serialport' module

    Can anybody give me a helping hand to start with my first IoT and Espruino? I would love to do it with Espruino and not with Arduino, becauese I'm still familiar with JS-Coding.
