h2. Overview
ESP32 is a series of low-cost, low-power system on a chip microcontrollers with integrated Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n) and dual-mode Bluetooth(v4.2 BR/EDR and BLE). The ESP32 series employs a Tensilica Xtensa LX6 microprocessor in both dual-core and single-core variations and includes in-built antenna switches, RF balun, power amplifier, low-noise receive amplifier, filters, and power-management modules. ESP32 is created and developed by Espressif Systems, a Shanghai-based Chinese company, and is manufactured by TSMC using their 40 nm process. It is a successor to the ESP8266 microcontroller.

h3. Filesystem
*SPIFFS*
The filesystem implementation for ESP8266 had to accomodate the constraints of the chip, among which its limited RAM. SPIFFS was selected because it is designed for small systems, but that comes at the cost of some simplifications and limitations.
