The first module I tried is the LCD 1602, connected to an ESP8266 Wemos D1.
Connection are a little bit different than for an arduino. I’ve found a great explanation on that nice french blog.
Instead of using a potentiometer, I’ve directly connected the V0 pin to ground to set maximum contrast.
You can find the example code here.
