Is there a replacement for DeviceOS for the Photon/Argon etc.?

Firmware Device OS
1

I have a lot of physical hardware from Particle that I want to repurpose for use with normal WiFi without the Particle Cloud. Is there any known firmware replacement for this hardware?

You can use Photons without cloud connection with the current device OS.
Just use SYSTEM_MODE(MANUAL) then the device will not auto-connect to the cloud.
To activate WiFi only, you just use WiFi.connect() instead of Particle.connect().

Great, thanks for the reply. Was this always the case, or was this allowed at some point in the last couple of years? (It’s been a while since I’ve used your products now, since the Mesh was discontinued.)
