Hi,
I use Webrepl with ESP32 and MicroPython. Is as flexible as the BLE/NUS connectivity known from nRF5x world.

Just out of curiosity: is the Webrepl considered as a feature for WiFi based devices as ESP32/ESP8266.
I see that the BLE is not supported now so NUS based connectivity to run REPL remotely is not possible now.

Maybe the Webrepl needs less effort. Not to mention that the ESP32 BLE is memory consuming feature...

Thanks,
Bogdan

You can use telnet to connect to ESPs.
Or how different the Webrepl is? I haven't used it, so no idea...

The Webrepl is client-less approach - no standalone app is required, you simply run it from the http browser. The extra feature is the file transfer capability.
I believe that client-less telnet can be also ran as part of the web browser through chrome plugins so it is not huge advantage.

I am very new user of the webrepl:
