@allObjects, I think @tve is talking about uploading a program via WiFi. To do that, Espruino needs WiFI credentials built into it - it's no good if they disappear when you reset() the board because then you won't be able to program it again.
@tve I'm not quite sure I understand. You can use things like jspCallFunction to call into JS pretty easily as-is - I'm not sure what else apart from the network (which is sorted) would be needed.
As far as the WiFi terminal, I added some notes here about it. I think C is sensible for that - actually getting it running should be relatively straightforward.
It'd be nice if the firmware (as flashed) put the ESP8266 into AP mode with a Telnet server running. Hopefully we could tweak the socketserver code such that the server would survive a soft reset().
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.
