This looks like an interesting board. May be a good upgrade for the 8266

Yes I saw that too. Apparently, pin compatible. I will try and get a board and see how it works.
I have gotten the sketch working on ESP32. So it should be pretty simple to get working.
I have a new board on the way that uses a smaller form factor MCU. It will support either Seeed XIAO RP2040 or Adafruit QT Py ESP32-S2.
I havenāt yet worked on running the sketch on the Seeed XIAO, but as itās pin compatible with the QT Py and runs Ardiuno code, it should be trivial to get working. I like these boards as they are the size of a postage stamp and as powerful, maybe more so than the Wemos boards.

Apparently thereās a hardware issue with V1.0.0
Currently testing V2.1.0 (received it yesterday) and itās great so far.
Any news about compatibility with airgradient board? Iām waiting mine to arrive from JLCPCB
We are working on making the AirGradient Arduino library compatible with ESP32 boards.
The current library does not work with these chips.
Iām really interested in this. Using esphome, it should be possible to use it for not just airgradient, but adding bluetooth_proxy which could be handy given airgradients are likely scattered around. 2 tasks with one device.
I received by Pro (non soldered) kit very recently and have been having trouble uploading firmware with ESPHome as it times out very often. I have absolutely no time out issues with any of my other ~30 ESP boards. The board that came with the kit is a Lolin D1 āMimiā which is based on the 8266 so I figured Iād try to replace it with a pin compatible ESP32 S2 Mini or an ESP32-WROOM-32 ESP Mini 32 (no idea on brand or proper nameā¦).
ESP32 S2:
The OLED display, PMS5003 and SHT3X all worked fine but I just could not get UART1 for the CO2 sensor to work.
ESP32 WROOM 32 (Mini)
Everything works perfectly and it is pin compatible so no mods necessary.
Note: Sorry for terrible picā¦ camera on my S20Ultra is awful.
Edit:
Nevermindā¦ it works but now I cannot close the enclosure without modifying it as the corner where the LEDs are interferes with the recessed part of the enclosure or removing the PCB corner where the power led is (likely not an issue to do so but I am not sure I want to). The ESP32 S2 fits perfectly but I canāt get the UART1 to workā¦ 
Edit2: Creative and careful use of a Dremel on both the ESP32 board and the enclosure solved the problem.
This is very interesting as we want to make the board ESP32 compatible.
There are D1 ESP32 based modules that are smaller and should not have the problem that we need to adjust the enclosure, e.g.
S2 Mini
or
C3 Mini
Would you like to share the code adjustments you made?
@AirGradient - I have an ESP32 S2 Mini but I could not get UART1 to work as stated above. I did not see any errors so I did not know what else to try.
I do not have a C3 Mini and I did not find any on amazon so I canāt test that one.
My ESPHome code is for the ESP32-WROOM-32 that is a bit too large to fit (I modified both the board and the case and it fits now):
Note: Code is still work in progressā¦

I certainly want to come back and try out your esphome code!
