Is it possible?

- Thu Sep 18, 2014 9:41 pm #741 Technically it is possible, but it would require some code to be written.

Where I get my modules

Maybe a virtual serial port that maps to WIFI? So the IDE will not know!

Or the ESP8266 need to know the protocol of the serial port programming and someone write that code

And then you can FTP/TFTP the binary to it....

I like the virtual serial idea (if the IDE only works with serial)!
