) and COM port in the IDE.Connecting Peripherals:
Uploading Code:
BOOT
button while uploading code to enter programming mode.Below is an example code to connect the ESP32 to a WiFi network and print the IP address:
#include <WiFi.h> // Include the WiFi library
const char* ssid = "Your_SSID"; // Replace with your WiFi network name
const char* password = "Your_Password"; // Replace with your WiFi password
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200); // Initialize serial communication at 115200 baud
delay(1000); // Wait for a moment
Serial.println("Connecting to WiFi...");
WiFi.begin(ssid, password); // Start WiFi connection
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
delay(500); // Wait until connected
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("\nWiFi connected!");
Serial.print("IP Address: ");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP()); // Print the assigned IP address
}
void loop() {
// Add your main code here
}
Tip: Replace
Your_SSID
andYour_Password
with your WiFi credentials.
