There are two (actually 3 but the third method uses the command line) methods you can use to upload the initial firmware to your device. Both of them are a bit technical but not insurmountable. If you develop software on ESP devices then you probably already have the Arduino IDE v1.8 software installed on your computer. If you do not then choose the ESP32 flash download tool method as it is fairly straight forward. I didn't ask him to try, but think that even the hairy dude from the Geico commercials can get this done.

# Using ESP32 Flash Download tool
The flash download tool is probably the most straight forward way to onboard your new ESPSomfy RTS device. Depending on the device you have chosen, you may need to set the device into download mode. For instance, the WT32-ETH01 requires a jumper between the IO0 and ground before uploading any firmware to it. So check your documentation and set the board appropriately.
