I have a project put together that I want to essentially be a "dongle" - I just want to plug it straight into a USB power source, preferably without having to supply an additional cable. Is it possible to solder up a USB type A male socket (like this: https://www.amazon.com/uxcell-Socket-Connector-Replacement-Adapter/dp/B07QY6Z4Y6) straight to the board?
I found this pretty slick unit for doing this with a RPi Zero, but I'd rather use the Espruino WiFi for my project - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08XYKWZN9
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.
