+this is a work-in-progress
+
+- am using [espressif's ESP8266_RTOS_SDK](https://github.com/espressif/ESP8266_RTOS_SDK)
+- run `make compile_commands` if you're using the clangd language server
+- need to add/modify the following in your sdkconfig:
+	```bash
+	# compilation on arch
+	CONFIG_SDK_PYTHON="python2"
+
+	# wifi settings
+	CONFIG_EXAMPLE_WIFI_SSID="your network name"
+	CONFIG_EXAMPLE_WIFI_PASSWORD="your network password"
+
+	# hostname (optional)
+	CONFIG_LWIP_LOCAL_HOSTNAME="your custom hostname instead of espressif"
+	```
