SmartSpin2kFlasher is a utility app for the SmartSpin2k framework and is designed to make flashing ESPs with SmartSpin2K as simple as possible by:

• Having pre-built binaries for most operating systems.
• Hiding all non-essential options for flashing. All necessary options for flashing (bootloader, flash mode) are automatically extracted from the binary.

This project was originally intended to be a simple command-line tool, but then I decided that a GUI would be nice. As I don't like writing graphical front end code, the GUI largely is based on the ESPHome-Flasher project.

The flashing process is done using the esptool library by espressif.

It doesn't have to be installed, just double-click it and it'll start. Check the releases section for downloads for your platform.

If you want to install this application from pip:

• Install Python 3.x
• Install wxPython 4.x manually or run pip3 install wxpython (see also linux notes below)
• Install this project using pip3 install smartspin2kflasher
• Start the GUI using smartspin2kflasher. Alternatively, you can use the command line interface ( type smartspin2kflasher -h for info)

If you want to build this application yourself you need to:

• Install Python 3.x
• Install wxPython 4.x manually or run pip3 install wxpython
• Download this project and run pip3 install -e . in the project's root.
• Start the GUI using smartspin2kflasher. Alternatively, you can use the command line interface ( type smartspin2kflasher -h for info)

Installing wxpython for linux can be a bit challenging (especially when you don't want to install from source). You can use the following command to install a wxpython suitable with your OS:

# Go to https://extras.wxpython.org/wxPython4/extras/linux/gtk3/ and select the correct OS type
# here, we assume ubuntu 18.03 bionic
pip3 install -U \
    -f https://extras.wxpython.org/wxPython4/extras/linux/gtk3/ubuntu-18.04 \
    wxPython
