+A Python-based, open source, platform independent, utility to communicate
+with the ROM bootloader in Espressif ESP8266 & ESP32 chips.
+
+esptool.py was started by Fredrik Ahlberg (@themadinventor) as an
+unofficial community project. It is now also supported by Espressif.
+Current primary maintainer is Angus Gratton (@projectgus).
+
+esptool.py is Free Software under a GPLv2 license.
+
+This (source) is downloaded from pypi.org/projects/esptool as the github
+site does not have a complete sourcecode zip.
