01 Starting with NodeMCU WebIDE

Once you cloned/forked the nodemcu-webide the WebIDE does not work out of the box:

• edit httpserver/httpserver-conf.lua
  • SOFTAP: make the device work as Access Point (AP), e.g. http://192.168.111.1/ will be the URL once you joined the WIFI AP.
  • STATION: edit SSID and Password of your WIFI, so the device can join your WIFI network (e.g. http://192.168.0.32/)
• run make upload_all and make sure it proceeds without error
• run nodemcu-tool terminal, or any other tool to connect to the serial of your device, then once reset the device the console will display how to access the WebIDE (depending on the mode you chose)

Further, the WebIDE is currently broken (update this once things work again), you can create files, view and edit files, but you cannot execute(preview) those, most examples don't show up and therefore cannot be tested.
