Can SoftwareSerial be used in an ESP01 I am using ESP01 as a microcontroller that retrieves information from Firebase and sends them over serial to an Arduino Uno for other uses. I am not using NODEMcu since it has few analog pins and ESP01 is the only option available for me at this time.
Can the GPIO 0 and GPIO 2 pins available in the ESP01 be used as a serial communication pins when defined with SoftwareSerial library?
I want to keep the serial from the existing TX and RX for debugging and testing.
Check your other post I answered it there. The ESP01 has 2 serial channels.
