Just playing around with the Arduino Uno Wifi board while I'm waiting for my WeMos boards to arrive & it has dawned on me that the Uno uses the ESP8266 the same as the WeMos. I tried the tutorial that Erel posted for doing Wifi comms with an ESP8266, but it fails on the compile with this error:

B4R version: 1.80

sketch\rESP8266WiFi.h:6:25: fatal error: ESP8266WiFi.h: No such file or directory
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
^
compilation terminated.
exit status 1

I have downloaded the ESP8266 library as instructed in the tutorial, but there's obviously a difference between the WeMos & the Uno - but just wondering if it's just a configuration thing, or would it require changes to the ESP8266Wifi B4R library?

- Colin.
