I recently bought an ESP8266- 12f, on Aliexpress, to create few projects, is my first contact with ESP8266, i read few topics about it and was pretty exacite to begin. However i dont know what software donwlaod, and another important aspects to begin, my mistake was forget that the all content on their website is in chinese, so if anyone can just appoint me the right direction, or tips, i would appreciate, thank you for reading !!

My personal favorite is the ESP8266 Arduino IDE first but there are many other options.

thank you, i will try it.

I'm doing development in plain C using the esp-open-sdk toolchain and the espressif non-os SDK

A good application to start your own firmware and learn from is esp-mqtt

You'll find SDK and API documentation also in English on the espressif website.

have fun
