That error kind of looks like the not logged in error, or no internet connection… but you seem to be logged in. Try removing everything that’s not a source or header file from your folder.
Try closing the app, and deleting the ~/.sparkdev/ folder from your HOME directory and reopen the app. It’s a hidden folder so you’ll have to possibly unhide or whatever… I just leave all my hidden stuff showing all of the time.
Also what do you have in that lib/ folder. I’m not sure subdirectories are handled currently.
Just as a quick test, can you try compiling the default Tinker app… I just did and mine’s working fine:

If you get an error like this (!) One Error in red… you can click it and it will tell you what the error is. I just created a file called test.cpp and put “asdfasdf” in it… and the error it told me was "asdfasdf" does not name a type.
Oh but I see yours says 0 errors… yeah that’s weird! If you can share your code in a zip file, that would be helpful so we can try to reproduce it.
Also just tried compiling neopixels and it’s working great:
Not currently… the Web IDE is structured the way it is to make those files easy to add to a new user app, but in the local IDE (Spark Dev) and also Spark CLI, that’s not necessary. It would be good to be able to natively support that structure though, to keep from managing two different sets of files. I’ll add an feature request as an issue to the Spark Dev repo.
I had “0 errors” problem too. Found out that IDE is unhappy with multiple *.ino files laying around. I had 2 simple test .ino files (copy of blink test and TCP client from documentation). Both compiled well. Then I added third *.ino file and one *.h and one *.cpp file (library the new .ino file uses). Since then, I had failed compile with “0 errors” message. Deleting 2 old *.ino files, leaving just the new one and library files, it compiled successfully. Hope it helps
