@bobblkabb
it really depends.
you can give it a try for sure, just remember that being Beta you might bump into some bugs

Still, can't also find it with latest beta (v2.0). Board ist plugged in, /dev/ttyUSB0 is selected.

@bobblkabb

I think you're doing it wrong, I only realised it now that I read your report a few times.
You are searching for the board support in the library manager

go to Tools > Board > Board manager and search for esp8266
