| | | | | A few months ago, I started learning Arduino, and recently I finished my first small project. After finishing the project, I was wondering if I could build the same thing for cheaper, and that's when I stumbled into ESP32. ESP32 is an MCU (Micro Controller Unit) that got very popular because it has integrated WiFi, Bluetooth, very good documentation and is relatively cheap for what it does. Interestingly, the Arduino UNO R4 WiFi contains two MCU and one of them is an ESP32. Getting an ESP32 The easiest w... | |

While I admire the efforts to get Home Assistant fully packaged for Debian I accept that's a tricky proposition, and settle for running it in a venv on a Debian stable container. Voice requires a lot more binary componen... | |
