I am a newbie to ESP Basic but I have a background in PIC programming using Pic Basic Pro.
In the Pic Basic Pro environment, the source code is compiled and loaded to the PIC. In this case, the end use has no visibility to the source code. In the ESP Basic environment there is no compile stage - the program runs directly from the source code which lives in the ESP8266. Am I correct in assuming that the end user therefore has full access to the source code via their web browser? Is there a way to prevent the end user from accessing and/or modifying the source code?

Comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Barry

I came across from PIC basic pro also.

beware that one thing that tripped me up was ENDIF vs END IF
for espbasic its "end if"

enjoy!!
