I'm old school and my knowledge comes from the days when code ran from either ram (DRAM) or rom. Typically code was loaded from a drive into ram where it was executed. Reading some of the Espressif docs it sounds like code is executing from the flash. My wee brain is having a hard time with that idea. Anyhow, I received my "Freenove Ultimate Starter Kit for ESP32-WROVER" today and it contains a cornucopia of devices and components, including the wrover. And I can't believe how clever Linux is; you just plug its usb into the wrover development board's usb socket and on the fly linux makes a serial device with the appropriate node in /dev. It's magic I tell ya.
