Version info of Arduino IDE missing in Beginner Setup Guide #15

I had problems following the Beginner Setup Guide because ESP8266 Sketch Data Upload would not show up in the Tools menu.

The problem was that I had installed the latest and greatest version of the Arduino IDE (version 2.0.0). The arduino-esp8266fs-pluginseems to be incompatible with this version. When I switched to Arduino IDE 1.8.19, I was able to follow the instructions and I successfully uploaded the data to the board.

Adding this information to the Beginner Setup Guide would probably spare other people some pain.

because arduino 2.0 libraries dont exactly work with 1.0 libraries sometimes.

Arduino IDE 1.8.19 or ARDUINO 1.8.18

Adafruit_SSD1306-2.5.7 Adafruit-GFX-Library-1.11.3 Adafruit_BusIO-1.13.2 ArduinoJson-6.19.4

libraries from roughly august 2022 or earlier

ESP8266FS-0.5.0.

also remember to change the flash as 1MB isnt big enough for the files: set flash size to 4MB (FS;2MB OTA:~1019KB
