Hi - are you planning on using the ESP8266 alone, or the ESP8266 and an Espruino board?
I'm not sure the Espruino firmware that runs on the ESP8266 is stable enough to use properly yet - although it is improving all the time. The one that runs on something like the Espruino Pico is pretty good though.
Right now, if you want the webpage to update automatically (I guess you mean while it's still open?) you'll want to do something like an AJAX request - basically having the website request another small webpage every few seconds.
Potentially Websockets are an option in the future, but that's some way off.
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.
