How to upload directly (not compile+upload through IDE)

Hey guys,
I'm trying to work out how to make a file I can upload directly to the board. I want to send the same program to a few hundred of these bad-boys and don't want to have to compile+upload every time. How can I create a file and just send it?

Only way to do that is to use interpreted programming language. For ESP, there's NodeMCU firmware that allows you to write code in LUA, which is interpreted language.

When you build on the arduino, you can find the created bin file and use esptool to flash that.

If you turn verbose preference in ArduinoIDE, you will see the command line that is used for upload.
It look like :
Code: Select allesptool -vv -cd ck -cb 115200 -cp /dev/ttyUSB0 -ca 0x00000 -cf /tmp/build7954594845470280878.tmp/Sketch_Buffet.cpp.bin
Of course, you can copy the resulting binary from this /tmp folder as a backup for future uploads.
