Nice!! Thanks for posting your findings. The theory is that Espruino (JavaScript) should now be able to run on anything that is an ESP8266 as it isn't board specific and since the SparkFun board "looks" like "just another" ESP8266 ... in theory it should have just worked. However, it is always extremely good to hear that reality backs this up.

I have been following the progress on the Espruino forums as well as here. There are several different versions of ESP8266 boards on my work bench that I will try over time and post here.
