About the project
Firmware for ESP32-S3 that turns the board into a multi-protocol tool for digital and radio protocols (I2C, SPI, UART, JTAG, CAN, BLE, Wi-Fi, RFID, Sub-GHz, etc.) via USB serial or web CLI. Inspired by Bus Pirate, it targets developers, debuggers, and security researchers.
Useful for
- Dump and analyze EEPROM or Flash over SPI/I2C
- Sniff CAN bus or UART traffic for device debugging
- Record and replay infrared signals to control appliances

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
