Thanks a lot! It looks and works really nice. Any chance you will include a selector for the fonts used by u8glib?

By the way: I compared the difference it makes on the heap and between your 7 default modules and the original module it's more than 5KB! Not bad if you desperately need some additional heap space:

Sure, why not...the list goes on and on The appetite comes with eating.

I see that https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firm ... onfig.h#L9 allows to configure fonts. What are the valid values? https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firm ... glib/u8g.h contains lots of variants. Furthermore, it'd also be nice to get a graphic example for each font the page offers so users can make up their minds.

A nice improvement would be to add an option to disable SSL

This is done but currently read-only in the UI due to NodeMCU bug #432

add more information into the version string thats printed on startup. Just the list of modules and some important flags used for config.

Next on my list.

Currently in the making, marked read-only in the UI. The back-end is done but I'm struggling a bit with the sensible presentation of several 100 font faces in the UI. The main screen will just have a text field to enter a comma separated list of font names as expected by NodeMCU but to help you with the selection there's a separate window with checkboxes whose state will feed the text field.

Most notable (but not visible), however, is that I reworked the entire back-end to be able to add more features with very little effort in the future.
