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.

Yes, it's probably better to chat about this on GitHub.
If we're going to have a build with Bluetooth and one without it's probably better with 2 board files. I do have 2 builds for some Espruino boards (eg. the Original with CC3000 or WIZnet support) but I'd rather not repeat it since it involves hacks in the script that creates the distribution zip. We could modify the build to include the extra parameters in the BOARD.PY file for all boards that did this, but it's not great.
I'd still really advise against splitting the build up though. 2000 vars is still quite a lot (and I'm sure that can be increased again as time goes on), and I doubt many people will hit it as a limit especially with the
save on sendfunctionality that most seem to use now.
