This devlog is rather long, but a lot of things needed to happen before I wanted to make another devlog. I had a very difficult bug involving macros (written in DuckyScript) running at the same time. It wasn’t always a problem, but the buttons made it really easy to crash the system by overlapping scripts. When I added some code to keep track of that, it would crash when launching a script from the web-ui, but not when launching them from the terminal or buttons. After much (much much much) debugging and banging my head against walls, I figured that the problem was with a websocket status pulse. By delaying the pulse, I could avoid a crash. You can see the one line javascript patch below. I’m not sure why it was crashing the device, but it seems to be fixed now. I made a PR to upstream here Anyway, enjoy the demo!
I made a macropad with KiCad. It uses an esp32 s3, so it will have a web based config editor. This project is the firmware for it as I did not know that stardance could do hardware projects. Since I just worked on some button code and got set up, I will just have some pics of the macropad.
