Direct programming of Arduino-like devices from Blockly!

[g...@espruino.com]

The devices aren't quite Arduinos as they need to run the Espruino JavaScript interpreter. They're still pretty tiny with as little as 8kb RAM, and prices as low as $10 for the complete board.

I made a Simple Web IDE using the Google Chrome Serial Port API, and all I did was add a few extra Blockly blocks to handle some of the IO - everything else 'just worked'!

The web app itself is here:

Thanks for all the hard work on this - it's a great tool, and so easy to integrate!

Cool!  What title and URL should we use when linking to it?

From the Blockly Website?

It's probably best to use the Web App's URL:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/espruino-serial-terminal/bleoifhkdalbjfbobjackfdifdneehpo

And the name:

Blockly and Espruino - Graphical Programming for Microcontrollers

Although feel free to choose something else...
