For the meaning of the board names have a look at [Hardware](doc/Hardware.md). For details refer to the code in [platformio.ini](platformio.ini) and look for the hardware definitions in [GwHardware.h](lib/hardware/GwHardware.h).

You can typically install the esptool (once you have python 3 installed) with
```
sudo pip install esptool
```
To use the flashtool just copy flashtool.py and esptool.py from [tools](tools) to an empty directory.
To use the flashtool just download [flashtool.pyz](../../raw/master/tools/flashtool.pyz).
```
sudo pip install tkinter
sudo pip install pyserial
```
Afterwards run flashtool.py (potentially making it executable before).
Afterwards run flashtool.pyz with
```
python3 flashtool.pyz
```

You can find a prebuild executable in tools: [esptool.exe](tools/esptool.exe).

esptool.exe --port COM3 0x1000 xxxxx-xxxx-all.bin
```
Replace COM3 with the port shown in the device manager and the xxx with the name of the downloaded binary.
If you do not want to use the command line you can download the precompiled [flashtool.exe](../../raw/master/tools/flashtool.exe).
Just start the downloaded exe. Unfortunately some virus scanners seem to consider the exe a virus or trojan. There is not much I can do against this - the exe is simply build from flashtool.py - see [tools readme](tools/readme-esptool-win.txt).
If you do not want to use the command line you first need to install python3 from the [download page](https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/) - use the Windows 64 Bit installer. Install using the default settings. Afterwards download [flashtool.pyz](../../raw/master/tools/flashtool.pyz) and run it with a double click.
