That can be achieved using Grove shield or connected directly using jumper wires, please note that not all Arduino form factor boards have UART compatible with the Grove shiled. +To connect the ESP8266 module to your development board, look at the [ESP8266 Cookbook page](https://developer.mbed.org/users/4180_1/notebook/using-the-esp8266-with-the-mbed-lpc1768/). In general, this means hooking up the ESP8266 TX pin to `D0` and the ESP8266 RX pin to `D1` on your development board. -For Grove shield TX has to be connected to D1 and RX to D0. - -Make sure that UART module you're connecting ESP to is different than the debug UART connected to your USB port. +**Note on NUCLEO boards:** On the NUCLEO boards, pins `D0` and `D1` are used for serial communication with the computer. Use pins `D8` (to ESP8266 TX) and `D2` (to ESP8266 RX) instead. ## Getting started
