Would making boards for the espruino products available to the Arduino IDE like Adafruit does be something to consider perhaps?
I did see that Adafruit has a NRF52832 board available for the arduino ide, but they don't include any of the lower level NRF SDK calls in it, and I wasn't able to actually get it working with my puck.js, maybe it was something with the bootloader
For me (and I'm guessing a number of people), the value is in the hardware package, not necessarily just the IDE.
I don't know if you would want to maintain two sets of documentation or not though.
The other option would be to have the IDE send the code to the web service to compile a full bootloader+firmware file to flash like an update currently is.
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.
