This device is well supported by Tasmota so the easiest path is to FLASH the binary image from https://ota.tasmota.com/tasmota32/release/tasmota32c3.bin on to it using the Tasmota Web based Installer at: https://tasmota.github.io/install/
Remember to press and HOLD the bott button when plugging in the cable so the USB serial port can be seen. Also remember to erase device first and load tasmota32c3.factory.bin before loaded the above binary and check wiith the LOG & CONSOLE option and RESET that it has booted OK.
Then ensure the IP address of 192.168.1.156 is reserved for it by the router and set up MQTT (Configure > MQTT) and rename it TasmotaESP32C3156 using the menus (Configure > Other > Device Name & Friendly Name) the device will reset itself after each setting change and you can use the WebInstaller to check its logs.
You are now ready to make it a MQTT connected Smart Home sensor!
Here are a few screen shots from the Linux Mint 22 laptop during the flashing process...
