How to Program NodeMCU with Arduino IDE

Learn how to Program NodeMCU with Arduino IDE. You just need to install the board and connect it to the computer for programming it. We are using the Blink LED program as a sample program.

First, install NodeMCU Board to Arduino IDE. If you have already installed the board to boards the manager of Arduino IDE. Select the proper board (NodeMCU 1.0) and port. Finally, upload the Blink program to NodeMCU Module.

Please Help, My Relay not Triggering with blynk buttons but relay led glow very dim almost invisible but when i connect relay input pin with nodemcu ground pin then its triggered, so please guide me what i have to do.

[taehanlee]

if a program using the arduino code, will it translate directly onto the nodemc? in other words will I have to learn a completely new language?

[faeznazmi]
