WLED Flasher

WLED Flasher is a utility app for the WLED firmware and is designed to make flashing ESPs with WLED 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 fix some ESPHome Flasher issues when flashing WLED firmware. It is a fork of ESPHome-Flasher which in turn is a fork of the NodeMCU PyFlasher project.

The flashing process is handled by Espressif esptool.
