esptool Python module is a collection of libs and scripts to interact
with the bootloader on Espressif SoCs. The Python module happens to
provide three useful scripts: esptool, espefuse and espsecure. esptool
is the backbone of communication with the Espressif SoC's bootloader.
espefuse is useful when one needs to burn fuses or read the current fuse
state. Finally, espsecure is a tool for setting up Espressif
implementation of secure boot on their SoC.

Espressif SoCs aren't all used as main processor of a system and can also
be used as companion microcontrollers for specific tasks (e.g. providing
radio support such as WiFi and BT to a more powerful host, e.g. an
Aarch64-based system), esptool allows to flash the ESP companion controller
from the host system to which it is connected.
