Programming Languages for ESP32 & ESP8266

1. MicroPython

MicroPython is a one of the programming platform for ESP32 & ESP8266 micro-controllers. This is using Python 3 programming language that includes a small sub set of the python standard library and is optimized to run on ESP micro-controllers.

The ESP32 & ESP8266 Boards is a WiFi enabled micro-controllers that runs MicroPython on the bare metal, giving you a low-level Python operating system that can be used to control all kinds of electronic projects.

MicroPython is enabled with advanced features such as an interactive prompt, closures, generators, exception handling and many more. This operating system will run within just 256k of code space and 16k of RAM. Download Link

 2. Circuit Python

Circuit Python is based on Python. This is easy to use with ESP32 & ESP8266 boards. If you already have Python Knowledge, you can easily apply that to Circuit Python. if you have no experience, Its really simple to get started.

Circuit Python is easy to use because all you need is that ESP32 or ESP8266 board, a USB cable, and a Computer with a USB connection.

Mu is a simple code editor for Circuit Python, Its works with windows, Mac and Linux operating System.check the following link for Mu editor. Download Link

3. Arduino

 Arduino  is a very power full and easy to program. It has a big World wide community, so that can share our knowledge and get reply by many peoples.  Arduino come with his own software, This software works Windows, Linux and Mac operating systems. you can code online also.If you know C and C++,  That's make you programming easy.

The Arduino project started in 2003 as a program for students at the Interaction Design Institute Ivrea in Ivrea, Italy, aiming to provide a low-cost and easy way for novices and professionals to create devices that interact with their environment using sensors and actuators. Common examples of such devices intended for beginner hobbyists include simple robots, thermostats and motion detectors. Arduino IDE Download Here

After install the Arduino IDE need to install Board for ESP 8266 and ESP32 to upload and verify the codes, Find the following link for ESP boards For ESP8266 Click Here, For ESP32 Click Here.

4. NodeMCU

NodeMCU is Lua based firmware for the ESP32 & ESP8266 WiFi SOC from Espressif and uses an on-module flash based SPIFFS file system. The firmware was initially developed as is a companion project to the popular ESP8266-based NodeMCU development modules, but the project is now community-supported, and the firmware can now be run on any ESP module.

5. Mongoose

Mongoose os is a firmware development framework for ESP32 & ESP8266. Mongoose OS is a framework for building apps for low-power microcontrollers and consists of the following main components:

A mos tool. Provides device management and firmware building capabilities,

A build toolchain. This is a docker image which contains hardware vendor's SDK together with mongoose-os sources. A mos builds a firmware by taking mos.yml file in the current directory and invoking a build docker image either remotely or locally,

A collection of ready-to use apps and libraries.
