ESP Web Tools next generation

Allow flashing Tasmota or other ESP-based firmwares via the browser. Will automatically detect the board type and select a supported firmware. See website for full documentation.)

Chip Variant Support (ESP32-P4)

For chips with multiple hardware revisions (like ESP32-P4), you can specify different firmware builds for each variant:

{
  "name": "My Firmware",
  "builds": [
    {
      "chipFamily": "ESP32-P4",
      "chipVariant": "rev0",
      "parts": [{ "path": "firmware_p4_old.bin", "offset": 0 }]
    },
    {
      "chipFamily": "ESP32-P4",
      "chipVariant": "rev300",
      "parts": [{ "path": "firmware_p4_new.bin", "offset": 0 }]
    }
  ]
}

The chipVariant field is optional. If omitted, the build will match any variant of that chip family.

See manifest-example-p4-variants.json for a complete example.

Performance

ESP Web Tools supports configurable baud rates for flashing. By default, it uses 115200 baud for maximum compatibility. You can increase the baud rate for significantly faster flashing speeds.

Custom Baud Rate

You can customize the baud rate using the baud-rate attribute:

<!-- Default: 115200 baud (maximum compatibility) -->
<esp-web-install-button manifest="manifest.json">
  <button slot="activate">Install</button>
</esp-web-install-button>

<!-- Fast: 2 Mbps (~17x faster, recommended for modern chips) -->
<esp-web-install-button 
  manifest="manifest.json"
  baud-rate="2000000">
  <button slot="activate">Install</button>
</esp-web-install-button>

<!-- Safe: 460800 baud (~4x faster, works with older USB-Serial chips like CH340) -->
<esp-web-install-button 
  manifest="manifest.json"
  baud-rate="460800">
  <button slot="activate">Install</button>
</esp-web-install-button>

Available baud rates: 230400, 460800, 921600, 1500000, 2000000
