I hoped this would just be a plug and play/follow the instructions to success, however it's not. I'm looking for help to get past the error I encountered when uploading the programing to the ESP8266.
I believe I followed the instructions properly to the final step. I've no experience in programing nor using this forum, so be kind when helping, I'll probably appear to be very ignorant.
The link goes to a Instructables web page which looks to have been abandoned maybe 3 years ago. When downloading the linked files the names have changed, I changed the file names to reflect what the instructions tell me to expect. I'm guessing over time something has changed in the way the Arduino software works with the code as written?
Yes, I read it's best not to insert a link to a web site when asking something here, but in all honesty I'm really hoping someone out there/here can guide me how to get it working. I thought I'd ask here before abandoning all hope and trying to find something else (newer) which might work the same.
Below is the error I encounter.......
