## Useful for

- Flash an ESP32 with an Arduino sketch without learning ESP-IDF
- Build firmware for several ESP32 chips from one codebase
- Add an external Arduino library and check its ESP32 compatibility

## Why it’s here

- 1 star so far today, about 2 expected by the end of the day.
- GitHub Trending C++ today: #11, +4 stars.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
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.
