The biggest/best reason I know for using ESP8266 is the integrated WiFi module, but it seems that this doesn’t expose that or at least capitalize on it, which gives little incentive to use this over something like the Teensy.

Is there any intention to add WiFi support to the dev kit?

Yes ESP8266 has WiFi Built-in but thanks for the pointer, I will update the description to reflect that fact.

It appears that there is an antenna on the PCB so I believe WiFi is supported here. Outside of that, the ESP8266 is a pretty nifty CPU itself. Depending on what you want to do, a Teensy might be what you want. The ESP chips do not have an FPU for example.

From board picture it looks like a wifi antenna is on the board, maybe WifiClient.h would work?
