Hi,
I have a nodemcu board and I use currently the Lua firmware. I would like to try the "Arduino mode". Which firmware should I use in order to use Arduino IDE and upload sketch files?
Thank you

It should not matter, but for some reason it sometimes does. no matter what firmware you have on your module you should be able to download from Arduino. If the code doesnt execute try this

Thank you for your reply. I'll try with Lua firmware. But I imagine it's better to use AT firmware for memory saving?

What he was trying to say is when you upload your sketch from IDE, it actually overwrites entire firmware, so it doesn't matter what is on there already. But sometimes the first flash doesn't work and you have to install AT firmware at first.
