See, i do not have much problem with you providing exe or anything else. Your code is already open source.
But there is also another issue. We need to download entire EXE of 80MB+ everytime you make a little change
or come with new version.
Till now ive got 4 exe downloaded. I just downloaded version 1.0.6 and now when I came here its already 1.0.10....

Don't you think its always better to host this on GitHub or bitbucket.
By this it'll be easy to pull it every time you make little change.
And we'll save our data volume by only downloading change.

I'm still not convince why you love EXE/Setup thing.?

I posted the source code and all development DevKit on github
https://github.com/CHERTS/esp8266-devkit

I will continue to publish the installer, because it's easy for many users.

- Tue Feb 24, 2015 7:43 pm #10640 I have a question about what location to flash the bin files to.

The 0x00000.bin and 0x10000.bin files get flashed to the addresses in their names, I assume. But I'm not sure to what addresses I should flash the blank.bin and esp_init_data_default.bin files.

EDIT: I tried to just flash the files directly, from Eclipse. I get a "failed to connect" error. I'm using a CP2102 USB-serial bridge. I do have it connected as outlined in CHERTS' first post in this thread. Is there anything I should be checking?

- Wed Feb 25, 2015 5:04 am #10678 Please check the makefile of your project. I have set the proper com port and reduced the transmission speed to 115200.

- Wed Feb 25, 2015 7:58 am #10687 I had already changed the COM port and there is no transmission speed in the makefile.
