Support ESP8266 devices

There are many devices based on the ESP8266 chip:

• Adafruit Feather Huzzah (link)
• Adafruit Huzzah (link)
• WEMOS D1 mini (issue #3) (link)
• WEMOS D1 mini Pro (link)
• NodeMCU

and others.

It would be nice to have them supported by the MicroPython Support plugin for PyCharm / IntelliJ.

See the discussion about supporting ESP8266 in PyCharm at PY-20308.

This issue is about the initial support for the ESP8266 devices.

The initial roadmap:

• Create wiki pages for the supported devices containing general info, installation instructions, supported features, links to official pages, owners and maintainers of specific devices
• Show the link to the wiki page in the device configuration dialog
• Save the selected device type in the module settings
• A way to detect the connected devices / to figure out the device port
• A way to specify the device port manually #7
• Type hints for MicroPython modules #5
• Tools similar to ampy for flashing Python files to ESP8266 devices other than Adafruit #6

Hi Andrey,

Something personal came up and I will not be able to help out until next Tuesday. I am very invested on this and coming next week I will come on board and help out any way I can.

Kind regards Costas

MicroPython plugin 1.0 provides initial support for ESP8266-based devices. Please send your feedback in new issues / pull requests.
