Dadifesto Labs Presents – Huzzah: An Adventure
Setting up the +Adafruit Industries  ESP Huzzah boards.
Watch as I relearn to solder, then desolder, then fix various mistakes in soldering all while keeping kid friendly banter going. (Skip to the  35 min mark if you want to miss all the soldering  highs and lows) Â
Once done  experience the joys of setting up the Arduino IDE under Ubuntu  and adding in all the ESP and Adafruit specific board management goodness.
Once connected wonder at  the following of the Adafruit learning page  as I make lights blink and then connect to my wifi router and make contact to the mother ship on the interubes.Â
Watch all the fumbles, all the fun and all the  raw unedited  excitement of the start of our Huzzah adventures.
