https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/inde ... he_ESP8266

Most Commons chips on ESP are CH340G or a CP2xxx chip.

Check for drivers installed on your Mac. Flashing from Mac Will need a bit more digging. Although easy if Arduino installed.

I hope I understood the “No port” part
Belgium and land of ESP ... counting :D

this guide is for windows, and it has nothing to do with the problem,

when I plugin a esp8266 with usb I dont show up under ports,
so not even Arduino software can't connect to it

You need the MacOS drivers to connect to your ESP. What board are you using?
