I've started a
kicad schematic symbol and footprint library for the ESP modules. ESP-01, ESP-07 (the 16 pin version), ESP-12, and ESP-201 are available now. Additions and corrections are welcome at
GitHub.
The footprints have not been tested on a real PCB yet, so use with caution
The library is at

Cool! Thanks!
I've just been using a 4x2 header, but have been meaning to do up a footprint for the ESP-07. Also need to do one for the ESP chip itself.

BTW, I didn't got time to look yet about your footprint, but just to say that I've done one back in February, after receiving my first PCBs from China, I've decided to add thru-hole pins in case I wish to have ESP8266 module been pluggable option.
Recently, I've received my new version PCBs, and the thru-hole pins was a good idea.

My footprint for the ESP-12 does not have through holes, but I was thinking they would be a good idea. I don't have an ESP-12 yet so I've been hesitant to put too much work into the footprint until it arrives.
Any chance you could share your footprint?
