SparkFun Single Board Computers Editorial Review
The SparkFun ESP8266 Thing Development Board with Headers has received mixed reviews from customers. While some users find it to be a great and versatile board, others have expressed concerns about certain limitations and pricing. One reviewer, who was new to microcontrollers, initially struggled with understanding the board despite its well-documented nature. They mentioned that the ESP8266 chip is powerful and easy to use for developing WiFi-connected projects. However, they highlighted the somewhat challenging learning curve and the relatively high price compared to similar boards. Another customer, a programmer, praised the ESP8266 as an amazing and cost-effective chip with a built-in WiFi stack. They opted to program using the manufacturer's "non-OS" SDK and appreciated the open-source nature of most of the tools. However, they pointed out that the SDK's design has some flaws, which might not sit well with professional programmers. Furthermore, a user regretted their choice of the SparkFun board due to the limited amount of flash memory. They advised that a board with more memory would be preferable for tasks such as over-the-air flashing. However, they did acknowledge the board's advantage of providing both 3.3v and 5v to power various sensors and relays. Overall, the SparkFun ESP8266 Thing Development Board with Headers is deemed a versatile tool for WiFi-connected projects, but potential users should be aware of its limitations, specifically in terms of memory, and Consider the pricing in comparison to similar boards.
