About six months ago, @phoddie launched the discussion of an inspiring idea: What if ... one could use Node-RED to program microcontrollers (MCU)? His first thoughts kicked off a development of two components that made this idea become reality: node-red-mcu , a custom runtime, based on the XS Javascr…

Thx for the update. Now some one should make a step by step tutorial for the dumb ppl like me.
