Manage cores over WiFi with no internet connection

Hello Community,

I am working on my senior design project at UVM currently. We are using SparkCores to control power outlets. We cannot connect them to UVM’s network due to security constraints by ISO here. What is allowable is setting up a router that broadcasts its own network, but with no internet connection. Any idea if I can upload to the cores if i connect them and my iDevice to the internet-less network?

Regards,
Nick

As far as code development you should be able to use the CLI (https://github.com/spark/spark-cli).
You can also setup your own personal cloud on your internet-less network. (http://community.spark.io/t/local-cloud-on-raspberry-pi/5708)
Additionally, you could, for claiming reasons setup a wifi network using your phone as a hotspot.

Let me know if you have any additional information
