First, does the MCU of classic and Pico Espruino board have a Unique Device ID? ...and if so: Second, how would I get a hold of the Unique Device ID in Javascript?

Yes, they do - process.env.SERIAL and also getSerial() contain the unique ID.

If there are other chip-specific things you want it's actually pretty easy to find the address from the datasheet and use peek to pull the data out...

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
