Espruino is a JavaScript interpreter for low-power Microcontrollers. This site is both a support community for Espruino and a place to share what you are working on.

Correct! I was holding the button down for too long!
I have progress with my networking problem.
For some reason my Mac and PC refuse to connect to the Espruino. Neither Chrome or curl requests get through on both machines. However, other devices such as my iPhone and iPad connect fine. The Mac and PC are on the same WiFi/subnet as the other devices.
Maybe it's down to my BT router? Perhaps the laptops are on 5GHz and the other devices on 2.4? Would this cause a problem? I've tried http and https. I'll try to work out why, but for now I'm happy to test on my iPad.
Despite this problem I've managed to create a webpage with a canvas on that lets you draw on a 16x16 LED matrix in just a couple of hours. It's very odd (in a good way!) writing JavaScript for both the user interface and microcontroller backend.
I'm using http for now and have noticed that not all requests seem to get through when I'm drawing quickly. How many requests per second should the Espruino be able to handle? I'm only POSTing 20 bytes or so, but there can be 20 per second. I'll explore sockets next,
Cheers,
Sean
