Hello I want to inquire about connecting Arduino with esp8266 using serial communication RX TX (Master - Slave) I want to know how write the code esp? Is the same code that I type in Arduino Slave? The physical connection will be between Rx, Tx h, or via SCL, SDA? Can you help me? ---

> I want to know how write the code esp? Is that a question or a statement? As written, you seem to want us to guess what the answer to that question is. That doesn't make sense. > Is the same code that I type in Arduino Slave? Obviously not. The master and the slave are going to have quite different code. > The physical connection will be between Rx, Tx h, or via SCL, SDA? You communicate between the Arduino and the ESP using SoftwareSerial on any two available (Arduino) pins. ---
