ESP32-C3 Development Board

What is it?

The ESP32 C3 Nano is an Arduino Nano compatible development board, designed to provide enhanced computing power, wireless connectivity, addressable LED capabilities, and a built-in programming and debugging interface.

It is based on the ESP32 C3 chip, which provides improved processing capabilities, increased memory, and wireless connectivity compared to traditional Atmega variant.

The board maintains compatibility with the Arduino Nano form factor, ensuring easy integration into existing projects and making it a drop-in replacement for the traditional Arduino Nano board.

Why ESP32-C3?

It is a modern replacement for ubiquitous ESP8266 chip. It is better in every possible way while keeping the same price level. Better still it is based on RISC-V open source architecture, which clearly makes everything better (as bluetooth used to do years back)
