Im using the ESP8266 mounted on an ESP-01 adapter.  

 


Here is the ESP-01 and it's adapter.   The adapter takes care of all the ESP-01's needs, the only restriction is you can't reflash the ESP8266 with the Adapter.


Pinout of the ESP8266.  


Schematic of the ESP-01 Adapter.  


The Micro SD adapter.   The Micro SD will hold info like Time Zone, and display specifics.


The RTC (DS3231), the battery is on the backside.  


Note that the three adapter boards all have their pins 90° and will have to have them replaced with straight pins in order to mount them.
