Ahh, ok - yes, it'd be nice to keep the board the same footprint (so maybe no room for the DC jack). That space directly under the Espruino is effectively 'dead' though, so some of that could be used for NRF24/etc if you wanted?
If you place Espruino upside-down (that was your plan?) then you could put two extra holes in the PCB so that you can poke the buttons from the underside if you need to?
Making the Espruino unpluggable is a nice idea. I guess if you were to use pins (and solder socket onto the Espruino) then people could always solder on the Espruino if they wanted to do that though? Although if people can just buy the bare PCB then they have the choice :)
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.
