Pogo pins are in scope: trying to find the right ones as have previously used them in certain situations.
2 extra pins: in scope and usable with care
nw.exe is effectivly node (node version in package is very old an seems to be included for unkown reasons)
Probably "nice setup" where gyp etc are taken care of and a lesser learning curve for some use cases.(about 4 pucks ready in my checkout: didn't quite make 20 but it probably will happen as my time was less than expected (drains and new IT system in implementation) with advertisements to support espurino)

Found out that I was in some wrong threads and stuff. So I regroup my stuff "here".
Please note: I quite often edit my own posts to keep noise down so this container might get long dependent on how big the text field can bepuck.js
Presently, I have only one and have drilled out the holes of the black base. Current hold up is a female connector that I thought I had that I have lost for the area between the base to the puck.js. Allows for placement on PCB (male header going up thru the optional black base to puck with optional white cover on top) Wearables (pin thru clothes and black base to female headers)
Some thought as how to fixate puck.js on pins but allow for operation of switch: nothing found yet
Basic PCB preperation with size of puck.js on a PCB ardunio prototype shield: the two sets of 4 holes are ok: other holes and top surface pins need thought.Several bits and pieces that I need to put together, with another puch.js to make a set Lora

watch for wearables as pendant and build on @MaBe excellent http://forum.espruino.com/comments/13462373/ with hopefull neopixels 12 and 24 round stuff
Software is another story for the hardware, with some focus on nw.js for the time being

That's interesting - could it be that yours is internal and so isn't a
USB adaptor but is actually connected via PCI Express? As far as I
know, Noble requires that the devices are on USB.I have not really looked at the why it doesn't work (for the time being unless it becomes a big issue for others ) but have expanded the Windows view of connected devices and have

My Intel is supported as such,
Intel Wireless Bluetooth 7265 0x8087 0x0a2a
From
https://github.com/sandeepmistry/node-bluetooth-hci-socket#compatible-bluetooth-40-usb-adaptersHowever, this deep vertical dip into the pains and gains of this area of bluetooth may have factors that need to be analyzed in order to obtain something that works.
Hopefully for others as well as myself on the Intel Wireless Bluetooth 7265 0x8087 0x0a2a which seems to be one of the types of adapters on Lenovo Laptops.

It is "interesting" to install https://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-xdk (nw.js flagship from Intel for developement)
The software included in the kit is installed as non-admin and all code is in ~/ or windows equivalent of the same
As the installation is shown with files installing, one notes nodes.exe and a lot of other well known files. -
I am not too sure if the reference Gordon made to the Windows instructions is to what I tried:
ie. I tried to use Zadig installed river with the native app: did not work for me with my Intel Bluetooth adapterI return to non-Zadig ie Windows 1o for my installation as it is working with native app and the windows 10 support for my Intel Bluetooth
ie I would say remove all extra CSR tools and remove the driver (delete driver) and install adapter and make sure the Windows 10 finds the driver (basically what Gordon was stateing in part of his reply)
If necessary supply the inf files by reference to any driver disk that is available from CSRFollows the Windows 7 instructions to run Zadig and change the CSR dongle over to use the WinUSB drivers

Gordon mentioned Zadig, there is a faq and a couple of gifs for reference

Hi
I have just received a puck.js and am running windows 10.
I have not seen the "Connection failed becuase an incorrect code was entered" myself.
You downloaded the Web IDE and are using it locally?
What is the exact type of dongle?Not much help I know, but the device can work with Windows 10.
Edit:
Maybe a closer look at the dongle and compare with another machine that does not use the dongle.

Reference Ubuntu set up with IDE running as node server.js without options
Now I have to go figure what to do next to test chrome with web bluetooth and the puck.jsNote: for those on windows missing the swiss army knife of connectivity:

The world has moved on since putty -
In general, if one can make some "trinket" videos of the puck.js, one can give some meaning for micro controllers in wearables and funny things for female gender which is a focus at the moment in the organisation for coding for children I teach in my spare time.
There is a 10% 90% split in gender where the females are the lesser part.

Hmmm, with all the power needs, may have to go for a puck-pendant-watch: which actually could make things a lot easier as the button may present interesting problems if as a wrist watch

yes: power is gonna be an issue.
Current day apple watches do not show the time all the time and apple only have one button on their iPads/iPhones, so the interface to the watch, with one button and display that is only on when necessary will be ... interestingEdit
The human interface is central RGB and ring RGB. A button and the mag. -

In releation to the above arduino shield drawing.
Power, programmers far left, with clear area and pin holes so if one has another form factor, just cut it out and reuse where one needs power and programmers.
Far right, smd patterns for both processor and pin holes to allow for cutting out to whatever one needs.
In the middle, smd patterns for accel and mag and pin holes for the puck.jsAlmost forgot, anything else there is room for with pin holes for something else there may be room/usage for
Edit:
In the meantime, I just use a prototype board with RTC and SD CardEdit

thanks MaBe
my daughter and I both want a puck.js watch: so looks like something to be done.a puck.js watch allows for a constant advertisement for the great puck.js for people who ask what it is, and also a means to control the telly when the kids have it on too loud.
a method to put the puck-on-wrist to different modes using mag and button to control mode
I watch https://github.com/espruino/Espruino/issues/1023 and put it on a list of great things to come

Not working on this but would love to see

If I remember correctly, the arduino culture was that a device should fit in a cigarette box.
As I like to feel something in my hand, I have of course put some shield in a cigarette box and looked and felt if the "size is right".
It is.
If Gordon goes for the shield size: ie a shield pcb with connectors for arduino, I am in.Next step is leave as much copper on the board for anything that the community would like to SMD/prototype to so that the copper that would otherwise go down the drain to the environment is put to good usage
Edit:
As I have been digging up the garden due to my bad drains, "drains" are in my mind at the moment.Edit:
I also was looking at a Arduino Shield prototype board and thinking of making female on the bottom of my puck.js that could connect with males on the prototype board and thinking a PCB with connectors to a puck.js and with smd to the, as yet not released, raytac nRF52840 would be fun allowing for future options while still having a nRF52832 product.
ie back to the nRF52 comparison where there are certain differences between the products that should probably be put in a comparison chart. -
Is it possible to run (ie host) the Web IDE in espruino?
I wondered if there is something to read as to if done or possible.
