The Master line for sending data to the peripherals. S1 (or SD1) – Master Out/Slave In (MOSI).SK (or CLK) – SCK (Serial Clock) – SPI communication.The clock pulses which synchronize data transmission generated by the master.The Slave line for sending data to the master. SO (or SDO) – Master In Slave Out (MISO) – SPI communication.SC (or CMD) – (Chip Select) – the pin that the master can use to enable and disable specific devices.D0-D8 – GPIO (General Purpose Input Output) pins.Keep it on high (3.3V) for normal operation. Warning: The AMS1117 absolute maximum input voltage is 15V. Also connect ground labelled ‘G’ to complete the circuit. You can add an external power source to the Vin connection on the board with voltage >5V. The board used for experiments here is the Lolin NodeMCU V3 which has a very convenient USB interface that allows you to plug it into a PC – power is supplied from the USB port – but you will need up to 300mA~400mA (depending on the WiFi activity!) so don’t use a hub (unless it has a good power source), use a PC USB port or you might need an external power source.

The main difference is that in Lua you use event driven programming. The only disadvantage is that its not C so you’re going to have to learn something a bit different. With scripting – upload is a few seconds and you’re done. Although scripting languages are slower the processor is fast (which compensates for scripting speed) and you don’t wait around for an upload as you do with the ESP8266 Arduino IDE – and Arduino IDE uploading takes about a minute so making small frequent changes is a very challenging.

This means code upload is far faster than the Arduino IDE compile-link-upload process.
Lua installation on an ESP8266 will allow you to use the LUA scripting language in an interactive terminal. This DIY project allows you to switch between Lua scripting and Arduino IDE programming easily – just by reprogramming the ESP8266. This is also useful to get back to the LUA interface if you were uploading C/C++sketches using the Arduino IDE – which overwrites NodeMCU Lua data. We will learn how to to flash the new nodeMCU firmware into a ESP8266 ESP-12E WI FI module (LoLin NODEMCU V3).
