I will try with the LFS first.

is this a good project for Python ? or is the Arduino C++ better ? (easier)

Thanks !

Hi.
Depending on the amount of data, you can choose different options.
– for smaller amounts of data you can save data on the board flash memory. We have this tutorial: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/esp8266-nodemcu-write-data-littlefs-arduino/
– If you need higher amounts of data that you need to easily access later, maybe an SD card is a better options. I don’t have a tutorial for microSD card and ESP8266, only for ESP32: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/esp32-microsd-card-arduino/
If you want to program your board using micropython, I think this tutorial for the RPi Pico is also compatible with the ESP32 and ESP8266, but I haven’t tested it with those boards: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/raspberry-pi-pico-microsd-card-micropython/

Can you point me down the easy path ?
ESP and python ? save to …. LFS, SD card ?
ESP and arduino ?

just looking for simple, starter project.

Hi.
It seems you need to install this library: Adafruit_I2CDevice.h

Arduino: 1.8.19 (Windows 10), Board: “Generic ESP8266 Module, 80 MHz, Flash, Legacy (new can return nullptr), All SSL ciphers (most compatible), dtr (aka nodemcu), 26 MHz, 40MHz, DOUT (compatible), 1MB (FS:64KB OTA:~470KB), 2, nonos-sdk 2.2.1+100 (190703), v2 Lower Memory, Disabled, None, Only Sketch, 115200”

If you’re using Arduino IDE 2, this is the tutorial you need to follow: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/arduino-ide-2-install-esp8266-littlefs/

I created a folder Arduino IDE\plugins and placed the file arduino-littlefs-upload-1.1.5.vsix there

I also tried various options and nothing helps me, the “file upload button” does not appear

but it didn’t help me Arduino version 2.3.2

I don’t get the download function after a restart, although I added it to the folders

C:\Users\fos\AppData\Local\Programs\Arduino IDE\tools
C:\Users\fos\OneDrive\Documents\Arduino\tools

Hi Sara, Another update. In my limited experience with HTML I’ve always used the statement:
<image src=”image.jpg” alt= “discription of image”
so that was what I used. on images. That didn’t work. Then removed the “alt” attribute, and the images were served to the browser. As for the style.css That was simply a oversight in naming disagreement that I didn’t catch. Once in agreement between documents the style.css loaded and functioned fine. The Script.js however is another story. I have not gotten it to work still.
At first I had similar naming issues like the Style.css. After clearing that up it appeared that the script file was served, but didn’t run. (Results never published to replace the placeholders on the page. Checking with the Chrome developers tools showed that the file had indeed been received…I then imbedded the script into the HTML index file, using the tag. and it works beautifully. I must be missing something here.
Cheers
