FAQ
Q: What is the difference between ESP32-32D and ESP32-32U? ESP32-WROOM-32D has a built-in PCB antenna (no external antenna needed). ESP32-WROOM-32U has an IPEX/U.FL connector for an external antenna (better range in metal enclosures).
Q: Can ESP32-DevKitC run MicroPython? Yes - flash MicroPython firmware via esptool.py. Use Thonny IDE or uPyCraft for development.
