Downloading and installing the new Arduino IDE for ESP8266

I'm trying to get my ESP01 module work as a web server. I got the blink sketch to work fine, but anything more complicated and it doesn't like it. I seems to upload fine, but the serial monitor doesn't display any of the text from the sketch and just show 'wtd reset' as well as some other bits.

I was wondering whether it might be the parameters for the board are wrong, but I don't seem to be able to find any explanation of what they all are. How do I find out the size and speed of the flash and how many SPIFFs it has?

When I first connect the module to the computer, I have GPIO0 connected to ground, but disconnect it a couple of seconds later, before uploading the first sketch.

Anyone have any ideas?

Many thanks
