@BoxOfSnoo, Yes, exactly. but “ESP8266 as WiFi modem” is in the works, it is not released yet.
But running Blynk ON the ESP8266 directly is already supported.
@vshymanskyy, Its not good idea, because this lib support AT v0.22 version up to SDK 0.9.6. Latest SDK 1.0.1 requires ESP8266 modules with 1Mb flash and more, and have smallest free RAM. This lib, also, do not have commit for 2 last months.
NodeMCU have very small heap size with SDK 1.0.0 and above and stop develop on SDK 0.9.6 now.
Good way, IMHO, Arduino IDE. Users can easy update ESP8266 firmware and can customize it.
Also, you can see many commits and pull requests every day from many users on Arduino IDE repo on github
I was able to have the Adafruit CC3000 up and running - Yay! However, it’s crashing after 20 minutes or so. Also, the form factor of it is a bit large for this project. So I am looking to use a few RN-XV WiFly modules we have. I came across your Adapter for the WiFly: https://github.com/blynkkk/blynk-library/blob/master/Adapters/BlynkWiFly.h. Is this code functional and would you recommend starting with this library to work with a RN-XV or should I start from scratch?
Many Blynkers report issues with CC3000 . It’s a known thing and it seems that it’s a chip problem but we continue investigating it. It just needs time.
Thanks, Pavel for your response. If I wanted to attempt to get Blynk working with a rn-xv. Where would you recommend I start or should I wait for this module to be supported - I realize you all have a lot going on right now.
Yes, I started integration of RN-XV WiFly, but yes I left it unfinished due to other tasks.
Drop me an email to volodymyr@blynk.cc, and I will send you example sketch and explain what I have already done.
Any concrete dates on getting support for the SeeedStudio Ethernet Shield? I was really sad when I saw it wasn’t supported because I just bought it today.
Hello, I’m trying to compile example for esp8266
but got this error

how can I fix it? Thanks
@asci,
It seems you’re not reading carefully the comments in the sketch…
You need to modify the library header file to select if you want to use Software Serial.
