Installation of ESP8266 board support package in Arduino IDE

Installing with Boards Manager

Starting with 1.6.4, Arduino allows installation of third-party platform packages using Boards Manager. We have packages available for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux (32 and 64 bit).

  • Install the current upstream Arduino IDE at the 1.8.9 level or later. The current version is on the Arduino website.

  • Start Arduino and open the Preferences window. Arduino_IDE_File_Menu

  • Enter https://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json into the File>Preferences>Additional Boards Manager URLs field of the Arduino IDE. You can add multiple URLs, separating them with commas. Arduino_IDE_Preferences

  • Click on "OK"

  • Open Boards Manager from Tools > Board menu Arduino_IDE_Tools_Board_Menu

  • And install esp8266 platform Arduino_IDE_Tools_Board_Manager

  • Once esp8266 board support is installed click on "Close" Arduino_IDE_Tools_ESP8266_Installation_Done

  • (And don't forget to select your ESP8266 board from Tools > Board menu after installation). Arduino_IDE_ESP8266_Board_Selection
