Error compiling for board Arduino Uno.

Hope someone could help me with this error, I already installed blynk library and its updated to the latest version. I'm using an Arduino UNO rev3 and an esp8266 S01.

Welcome to the forum

You appear to be trying to compile code intended for an ESP8266 with the target board set to a Uno

3

Oh, but what I'm trying to do, is to code in arduino and use only the esp8266 as a bridge to the Blynk app, is it possible?

4

The ESP8266 is quite capable - do you really need an Uno too?

5

Yeah, that was my initial plan, can you incorporate LCD, with esp8266 alone?
