@ -51,7 +51,13 @@ For best results it is recommended to first erase the entire flash of your
device before putting on new MicroPython firmware.
Currently we only support esptool.py to copy across the firmware. You can find
this tool here: `<https://github.com/themadinventor/esptool/>`__ . Any other
this tool here: `<https://github.com/themadinventor/esptool/>`__, or install it
using pip::
pip install esptool
It requires Python 2.7, so you may need to use ``pip2`` instead of ``pip`` in
the command above. Any other
flashing program should work, so feel free to try them out, or refer to the
documentation for your board to see its recommendations.
