# jtenniswood/espcontrol > ESPHome-based firmware for ESP32 touchscreens that turns them into a Home Assistant control panel without writing code or YAML. Cards, pages and actions are configured through the device's built-in web page. - Magnitude: 0.5 out of 10 — Steady - Stars: 1,063 total · +0 stars on 2026-09-26 (UTC), ≈ 0 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Hardware, IoT & robotics · Language: C++ · Created: 2026-03-23 · Last push: 2026-09-26 - GitHub: https://github.com/jtenniswood/espcontrol · Homepage: https://jtenniswood.github.io/espcontrol/ · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/jtenniswood/espcontrol ## Useful for - Flash the firmware onto an ESP32 screen and pair it with Home Assistant over WiFi - Configure buttons for lights, scenes and thermostats from the panel's web page - Place a panel by the door or bedside for quick access to scenes and sensors ## Why it’s here - A steady background without notable changes. ## 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: 165 - Issues and pull requests: 1,999 - Watchers: 12 - Average over the last week: 3 per day - Usual pace: 6 per day - Latest release: v2.11.0 (2026-09-22) ## Stars per day, last 30 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-04 … 2026-11-02: None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None ## Magnitude by day, last 13 days 09-14 2.3, 09-15 2.2, 09-16 1.6, 09-17 1.1, 09-18 1.1, 09-19 0.9, 09-20 1.2, 09-21 1.3, 09-22 1.2, 09-23 1.2, 09-24 0.8, 09-25 0.8, 09-26 0.5 --- 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.
