Research direction

Start with the existing AtomVM tutorial and equipment documentation mentioned in the issue. Identify a suitable ESP32 board and document the exact steps a beginner needs to get a working AtomVM setup; done means a newcomer can follow the guide from choosing a board through running something successfully. The issue does not name specific files or tests, so locate the current tutorial and hardware guidance first.

Description

Hi,
I watched the AtomVM presentation yesterday at Code BEAM Stockholm and
felt a sudden urge to play around with it :-)

So I've read the tutorial and the other docs about required equipment etc.
However, as a newbie I wonder if there exist some sort of: "AtomVM + ESP32 for Dummies" ,
explaining exactly what board to get and detailing what to do to get something working.

Cheers, T.
