Make an esp8266 loaded with micropython work?

Post by banda » Thu Sep 21, 2017 4:44 am

I've just bought an esp8266, fully loaded with micropython. What do I do now?
I connect it up to my computer, and a tiny LED on it gives a tiny blue blink. And that's it.
I've loaded Tera Term Pro, And I see a large number of arcane numbers about setting it up.
I have no idea what to do with them.
Does anyone have simple instructions as to what I do next?
How do I start programming in Micropython? I have some ability with Python, so I'm not a complete dummy.
Must I just throw the module in the rubbish bin?
