This is why I asked if there's someone kind enough to help me, it's too long for writing it down.

Advice: "a problem" is not a good or helpful description

I find it very impolite to discuss a problem that others may have in private.

well, when I'm pressing tools- sketch data upload I'm getting this error: SPIFFS Error: esptool not found!

I have the same mistake, I downloaded esptool with Python thinking it would fix the problem but... No. I've been trying to do this project for several months now and I still can't get to its goal because of a problem and yet I follow the instructions to the letter, it's starting to get a bit annoying >:[.

No solution to the problem?

From another post: I think it is because you need the newest esptool version. Download latest release from here: https://github.com/esp8266/arduino-esp8266fs-plugin/releases
I got the same error, and I just successfully uploaded the sketch with latest version (0.5.0)
