#ProofOfWork for @SeedSigner (funded by @HRF):
First, get caught up on what you've missed in the last few months:

Throughout this MicroPython R&D I've had to figure out which dev boards to use and slowly start to appreciate what each has to offer.
I started documenting them here.

I had previously gotten camera data working on this old board (left) that has an integrated camera.
But had to figure out how to add a camera module to any random dev board. As w/everything in this process: so many unknowns for me to fight through.

And after incredible struggles, I finally have an esp32-S2 w/a camera module running live camera data on the Waveshare display hat!

Throughout this process I've been steadily building up more and more github repos for all these pieces.
But during R&D you tend to desperately try plenty of terrible things, finally get a break through, and then sprint further ahead.
It's REALLY hard to keep clear notes.

So it took most of this week to get organized and clean everything up.
In theory, everything I've done thus far to build a custom MicroPython firmware is collected here and should all compile.
It has to manage 7 other repos!

It's frustrating because there's so little coding in this phase; it's mostly wiring & configuration & banging my head on things.
But spending this morning looking back at how far we've come is pretty invigorating. And not too many R&D hurdles remain.
We're getting there.
