Sorry ... I wasn't at all clear. Let me try again... when you said "BTW, would there be anything gained from using something like MOD-WIFI-ESP8266-DEV ?" .... I probably mis-understood what you meant by "anything gained". I had assumed that it was in the context of furthering the project of getting Espruino running well on the ESP8266 ... and my answer related to that concept was "no" ... it doesn't matter which boards we use for development or testing ...
However, any ESP8266 module with more "stuff" is going to be better than one with less "stuff" from an absolute perspective. I.e. 4M of flash is quantitatively better than a device with 512K of flash. Is that what we are discussing?
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.
