Going to the point of giving it a full GoTo functionality (pun intended!) Done with a Arduino Uno, 2 TMCs 2209, ESP8266 (or 32 i have yet to choose), 2 stepper motors and some other small shenanigans.

If you wish to make a conversion for a EQ5 mount to a automatic GoTo Motorised system from scratch, you must first invent digitalWrite() and pinMode(). (currently playing with registers, finding out which approach to stepping is optimal and finding out that Serial.println() cant automatically combine variables into one output :( )
