Initializing the Raspberry Pi Pico W for use with ESPHome

In this quickie I prepare a Raspberry Pi Pico to use it with ESP Home.

Always add by default the internal temperature sensor of my Pico:
sensor:
- platform: adc
name: "Core Temperature"
id: core_temperature
pin: TEMPERATURE
unit_of_measurement: "°C"
filters:
- lambda: return 27 - (x - 0.706f) / 0.001721f;

I agree but as I said, baby steps.
If there is enough demand I will address the Pico in more details, but right now I will do it in this format, this Quickie was a result of a question I got on my personal GitHub.
There are a few issues and irritations related to the Pico but I have two that are doing a great job, the one keeps freezing randomly thought .

I’m brand new to the ESP devices and this video was almost useful, until you got to the part where you dragged and dropped off-screen. In essence this video failed from that point on.

Hi Wyatt,
There is too much private stuff that would be visible and that is why it was done off screen, I am sure you understand the value of privacy.
Dragging a file from the download folder to the pico is really the simplest part, I do not see how the tutorial fails in any ways.

@@homeautomatorzaI just had another look at the video and I now agree that it isn’t a failure. However, I am a different person to the one who commented two weeks ago. That person had NEVER used any ESP32 or Raspberry Pico devices so had no context for anything shown on your screen! In other words, I was such a noob that even your noob video was too advanced for me.
Now I’m building a water tank sensor with an ESP32 using multiple float sensors and LEDs (because, why not). This is all because of your video series! Thanks a million, and keep up the great work!
