Uploading gcode via web sends me to http://the-ip-address/api/files/local showing a json file (it doesn't start printing) is that normal behavior? then I have to go to http://the-ip-address/print to start printing, I would add some buttons to show and select files and to print them

I cannot reproduce this. For me the Json is shown and it starts printing. How are you uploading exactly?

I'm testing in Windows. Printer is running marlin 1.1.8 Generate calibration.gcode with cura 3.5.1, (it's correctly generated, tested printing by SD ) (Navigator Firefox 63) Go to respective http://the-ip-address, select file, click upload, printer beeps and says Complete on lcd, browser goes to http://the-ip-address/api/files/local showing json file. Nothing else happens

Sometimes it starts heating but after homing it moves randomly, at some point my sd card is getting corrupted (it was formated, inserted it in my pc and had corruped files), i'm using a NodeMcu and micro SD shield. Update: I changed to another SD shield, it's working for now

Yes, they can be finicky. I think the capacitors on there are important. I am using a WeMos D1 mini with an WeMos microSD card shield.
