Upload Python Files to ESP8266 Flash Memory

In this video, you’ll learn how to upload Python files to your ESP8266 so your code stays in flash memory and survives restarts. Previously, we ran code live in RAM — which is volatile. Once the ESP8266 rebooted, the program disappeared. Today, we’ll use AMPY to save your code permanently to flash memory. What you’ll learn in this video: • Installing and checking AMPY • Verifying ESP8266 connection • Writing and saving main.py • Uploading with AMPY command • Running the program after reset Commands used in this guide: • pip show ampy • ampy • mode • code main.py • ampy --port COM21 put main.py Required hardware: • ESP8266 development board • Micro USB cable • LED #ESP8266 #MicroPython #AMPY #IoT #Python #EmbeddedSystems #NodeMCU #FlashMemory #MicropythonTutorial #ESP8266Projects #LearnIoT #IoTProjects #Microcontroller #Electronics #DIYProjects #ESP8266MicroPython
