NodeMCU ESP8266 is an open-source Lua based firmware and development board specially targeted for IoT based applications. It includes firmware that runs on the ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoC from Espressif Systems and hardware which is based on the ESP-12 module, and like this, it can also be programmed using Arduino IDE and can act as both WiFi Hotspot or can connect to one. It has one Analog Input Pin, 16 Digital I/O pins along with the capability to connect with serial communication protocols like SPI, UART, and I2C. NodeMCU has 128 KB RAM and 4MB of Flash memory to store data and programs. Its high processing power with in-built Wi-Fi / Bluetooth and Deep Sleep Operating features make it ideal for IoT projects. Its applications include prototyping for IoT devices, low powered battery-operated applications, and projects requiring I/O interface with Bluetooth and WiFi capabilities.
