Yes, I guess we could benchmark them at least (given that they have binaries and do not need any re-compiles for running firmwares).

AI yes, slop - it is a matter of your definition of that, I guess.

Meshstatic is interesting - I need to get one and add more detils to this type of hardware also.

True... Will take a pass - we are planning a 0.3.0. release I guess that is when we also should make it possible for humans to read the README and not only for agents...

Yes, I can agree - no one can read the docs anymore - too long and to messy. Will consider taking a pass on that soon. Thanks for the feedback! I did not really expect this level of interest when I started - just to avoid carrying all esp32 devices all the time - for demoing...

Yes, we all use better tools than writing in plain assembly these days. I am super happy that tools get better all the time... Worst time was entering DATA on C64... to do fast code (for me at least). Now life is better ;-)

Wokwi is SaaS emulator with a monthly cost - I need to have a tool for my own vibe coding of new ESP32 software - this is the tool I needed - and it turned out quite ok. Free for all, free forever is the plan. I'd call it developed by emulator developers using Claude - not "vibe" but partly spec-driven partly "vibed". It is fantastic to not need to read tons of specifications as Claude is doing that while developing but you still need to know what you are doing... (I have developed emulators quite a while... starting around mid 90s).

Not in esp32sim - but I also happen to have Cooja-NG there we do have both RISC-V + ARM Cortex M33 - so it would not be hopeless to get that emulated.
