Thanks. And which firmware does it use? and how can I download firmware to it?

ESP module has firmware in it when you buy it. It communicates with Arduino IDE.

I hate Arduino projects,not personally yours,just because I can't have one of it..

May be I could donate one to you and send by post. So you can start practicing programming it. When I went to school I also couldn't afford many things.

I want to make my own laptop and creating many things but I can not because it is so costly.....talent is nothing without opportunity...

This is excellent! I was planning on making one this week, and was really curious about how to do deep-sleep mode.

Thanks!
