Hi!
There's now a book on Espruino available called Making Things Smart.
I've been working on this for over a year now, and it's great to see it out there! It was released in the US on August 1st, and will be available elsewhere (including the UK) from August 31st.
The book contains a selection of projects to do with Espruino. There's a pretty big section showing you how to make things with the Espruino WiFi and Puck.js, but the majority of the book is about building really simple hardware, and then making it do interesting things with Espruino.
It starts off with motors and stepper motors, and then goes on to show you how to make a really low-resolution televison (John Logie Baird style) using nothing more than an old PC fan and a LED. There's information on making a simple robot, low resolution digital camera, radial plotter and printer, and finally, a slightly more complicated but pretty usable XY plotter.
If you're interested you can get it here - it's published by Make: and is available as a physical book as well as an eBook.
