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

1.9 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 29, 2026, 10:55 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

075150August 1, 2026October 29, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-29 (UTC), 00:09–10:49: 6266 → 6275 stars (+9). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +19 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Over the last two days the pace is 1.6× that of the previous week and a half.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 93. -1% versus the preceding 7 days.

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.
