Non Chrome based IDE

Hello,

I'm looking for a possibility to develop software for my ESP8266 without using the Chrome IDE for privacy concerns. Is there any way to do that? The main problem is, that I need the modules, such as WIFI and so on. Of course, I could use

Modules.cached("ModuleName","return 'Code';");

but I don't think the modules are cached if the power supply is interrupted. The next problem is, that the modules depend on each other, so I would cache a lot of other modules, in order to use, for example, the Wifi module.

Any help is appreciated! :-)

Moved to the 'Other boards' forum.

If you type save(), modules are saved too. And if you don't like the Web IDE then use the command-line tools: https://www.npmjs.com/package/espruino
