In the Arduino IDE, I set the board type to “Adafruit HUZZAH ESP8266” and the COM port to COM13, which is my USB to serial adapter board. Then, I uploaded the sketch, which also compiles the code.

As usual I’ll be using a NodeMCU board (I really did order a lot of them) which uses an ESP8266, but there’s no reason this would be difficult to achieve on an Arduino-based device.
