# CHOMPI-Club/CHOMPI > Open-source release of the CHOMPI sampler: firmware (TAPE, TEMPO, WAVE, bootloader), schematics and enclosure files for building and modifying the instrument yourself. - Magnitude: 5.5 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 87 total · +0 stars today, ≈ 74 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Hardware, IoT & robotics · Language: C++ · License: MIT · Created: 2026-09-29 · Last push: 2026-09-29 - GitHub: https://github.com/CHOMPI-Club/CHOMPI · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/CHOMPI-Club/CHOMPI ## Useful for - Build the TAPE firmware and flash it onto your CHOMPI following the firmware guide - Write custom firmware starting from WAVE as a Daisy Seed template - Fabricate the PCB and laser-cut panels from the hardware files ## Why it’s here - 0 stars so far today, about 74 expected by the end of the day. - The spike has held for 2 days in a row — not a one-off blip. - The repository is 2 days old and already has 87 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #150. - About 11 forks a day — people are taking the code. - Recent forks include notable developers: @schollz (3,771 followers), @lin72h (348 followers). ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 15 - Issues and pull requests: 0 - Watchers: 2 - Average over the last week: 54 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 3 - Latest release: chompi-open-source-bundle (2026-09-29) ## Stars per day, last 5 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-09-27 … 2026-10-01: 0, 0, 0, 89, 0 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #150 ## More in this category 1. **ESPARGOS/esp-sdr** — 5.6 · Early signal · Hardware, IoT & robotics · C · +0 stars today, ≈ 76 by evening Firmware that turns the ESP32's built-in Wi-Fi radio into a software-defined radio (SDR): it captures raw I/Q samples and sends them to a computer over USB/UART for spectrum analysis.

Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
