* DNSServer: Handle examplewww.com correctly Just replacing 'www.' with the empty string when we assign the domainname will remove all occurrences of 'www.', not just those at the start of the string. Change this to a startsWith check so that only "www." at the beginning of the string is removed. * DNSServer: Rework request handling Rewrite the request handling in the DNSServer code to address the following issues: Compatibility with EDNS #1: RFC6891 says that "Responders that choose not to implement the protocol extensions defined in this document MUST respond with a return code (RCODE) of FORMERR to messages containing an OPT record in the additional section and MUST NOT include an OPT record in the response" If we have any additional records in the request, then we need to return a FORMERR, and not whatever custom error code the user may have set. Compatibility with EDNS #2: If we're returning an error, we need to explicitly zero all of the record counters. In the existing code, if there is an additional record present in the request, we return an ARCOUNT of 1 in the response, despite including no additional records in the payload. Don't answer non-A requests If we receive an AAAA request (or any other non-A record) requests, we shouldn't respond to it with an A record. Don't answer non-IN requests If we receive a request for a non-IN type, don't answer it (it's unlikely that we'd see this in the real world) Don't read off the end of malformed packets If a packet claims to have a query, but then doesn't include one, or includes a query with malformed labels, don't read off the end of the allocated data structure. * DNSServer: Clarify and tidy writing the answer record Modify the code used to write the answer record back to the server so that it is clearer that we are writing network byte order 16-bit quantities, and to clarify what's happening with the pointer used at the start of the answer.
Arduino core for ESP8266 WiFi chip
Quick links
Arduino on ESP8266
This project brings support for ESP8266 chip to the Arduino environment. It lets you write sketches using familiar Arduino functions and libraries, and run them directly on ESP8266, no external microcontroller required.
ESP8266 Arduino core comes with libraries to communicate over WiFi using TCP and UDP, set up HTTP, mDNS, SSDP, and DNS servers, do OTA updates, use a file system in flash memory, work with SD cards, servos, SPI and I2C peripherals.

Installing with Boards Manager
Starting with 1.6.4, Arduino allows installation of third-party platform packages using Boards Manager. We have packages available for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux (32 and 64 bit).
- Install the current upstream Arduino IDE at the 1.8 level or later. The current version is at the Arduino website.
- Start Arduino and open Preferences window.
- Enter
http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json
into Additional Board Manager URLs field. You can add multiple URLs, separating them with commas. - Open Boards Manager from Tools > Board menu and install esp8266 platform (and don't forget to select your ESP8266 board from Tools > Board menu after installation).
Latest release 
Boards manager link: http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json
Documentation: https://arduino-esp8266.readthedocs.io/en/2.5.0-beta2/
Using git version (basic instructions)
- Install the current upstream Arduino IDE at the 1.8 level or later. The current version is at the Arduino website.
- Go to Arduino directory
- For Mac OS X, it is
Arduino.app
showing as the Arduino icon.
This location may be your~/Downloads
,~/Desktop
or even/Applications
.cd <application-directory>/Arduino.app/Contents/Java
- For Linux, it is ~/arduino by default.
cd ~arduino
- For Mac OS X, it is
- Clone this repository into hardware/esp8266com/esp8266 directory (or clone it elsewhere and create a symlink)
cd hardware
mkdir esp8266com
cd esp8266com
git clone https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino.git esp8266
- Download binary tools (you need Python 2.7)
cd esp8266/tools
python get.py
- Restart Arduino
Using PlatformIO
PlatformIO is an open source ecosystem for IoT development with cross platform build system, library manager and full support for Espressif (ESP8266) development. It works on the popular host OS: macOS, Windows, Linux 32/64, Linux ARM (like Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, CubieBoard).
- What is PlatformIO?
- PlatformIO IDE
- PlatformIO Core (command line tool)
- Advanced usage - custom settings, uploading to SPIFFS, Over-the-Air (OTA), staging version
- Integration with Cloud and Standalone IDEs - Cloud9, Codeanywhere, Eclipse Che (Codenvy), Atom, CLion, Eclipse, Emacs, NetBeans, Qt Creator, Sublime Text, VIM, Visual Studio, and VSCode
- Project Examples
Building with make
makeEspArduino is a generic makefile for any ESP8266 Arduino project. Using make instead of the Arduino IDE makes it easier to do automated and production builds.

Issues and support
ESP8266 Community Forum is a well established community for questions and answers about Arduino for ESP8266.
If you find this forum useful, please consider supporting it with a donation.
If you encounter an issue which you think is a bug in the ESP8266 Arduino Core or the associated libraries, you are welcome to submit it here on Github: https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/issues.
Please provide as much context as possible:
- ESP8266 Arduino core version which you are using (you can check it in Boards Manager)
- your sketch code; please wrap it into a code block, see Github markdown manual
- when encountering an issue which happens at run time, attach serial output. Wrap it into a code block, just like the code.
- for issues which happen at compile time, enable verbose compiler output in the IDE preferences, and attach that output (also inside a code block)
- ESP8266 development board model
- IDE settings (board choich, flash size)
Contributing
For minor fixes of code and documentation, please go ahead and submit a pull request.
Check out the list of issues which are easy to fix — easy issues pending. Working on them is a great way to move the project forward.
Larger changes (rewriting parts of existing code from scratch, adding new functions to the core, adding new libraries) should generally be discussed by opening an issue first.
Feature branches with lots of small commits (especially titled "oops", "fix typo", "forgot to add file", etc.) should be squashed before opening a pull request. At the same time, please refrain from putting multiple unrelated changes into a single pull request.
