It always annoys me when I see KickStarters that advertise how easy it'll be to make a smart device with their BLE board and then totally don't mention the app part - especially the bit where you need a pretty modern Mac, $500 iPhone and a $99/year developer subscription if you want to do anything iOS :( You have to wonder how many of their boards actually get used for anything serious.
Executing random JavaScript over BLE (while presumably a massive security issue) would be very cool though, especially with something like PhoneGap (where you program in JavaScript). At least you can say 'hey, if you can develop an app then that's all you need'.
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.
