Serial config
Is there a way to backup and/or install a full config just using the USB/serial port?

Re: Serial config
Not really, you use the web interface for that. HTTP requests.

Re: Serial config
What approach would you recommend for setting up a few hundred units easily?
Re: Serial config
Maybe it is also possible to upload files to the SPIFFS on flashing?
But I agree it is a bit hard to deploy lots of nodes at this point.

Re: Serial config
It's in our interest to do mass deployment so we'll make sure it'll get fixed in the future.

Re: Serial config
30+ ESP units for production and test. Ranging from control of heating equipment, flow sensing, floor temp sensing, energy calculation, floor thermostat, water usage, to an interactive "fun box" for my grandson. Mainly Wemos D1.
Re: Serial config
What I do (it’s not perfect, but does the job) is to make a complete memory dump of a pre-configured ESP unit with the esptool.
---------------------------------------------
Command to create a backup of a pre-configured (4MB)ESP unit :
esptool.exe --port COM19 --baud 115200 read_flash 0x000 4194304 name.bin
---------------------------------------------
Restore/write the FW to a (4MB)ESP unit :
esptool.exe --port COM19 --baud 115200 write_flash 0x00000 name.bin
---------------------------------------------

Re: Serial config
We'll make mass deployment real in the near future because we need that ourselves. But time is scarce until we get full time coverage through Patreon
