Using Arduino Ide - Adafruit Feather HUZZAH ESP8266 Manual

You can also have the module do DNS for you, just give it the hostname instead of IP
address:
sk=net.createConnection(net.TCP, 0)
sk:on("receive", function(sck, c) print(c) end )
sk:connect(80,"www.adafruit.com")
sk:send("GET /testwifi/index.html HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.adafruit.com\r\nConnection:
keep-alive\r\nAccept: */*\r\n\r\n")
This is just a light overview of testing out your HUZZAH ESP breakout! For much

Using Arduino IDE

While the Feather HUZZAH ESP8266 comes pre-programmed with NodeMCU's Lua
interpretter, you don't have to use it! Instead, you can use the Arduino IDE which may
be more familar. This will write directly to the firmware, erasing the NodeMCU
firmware, so if you want to go back to Lua, use the flasher to re-install
