You never carried forward that topic (or I missed it). I think it might be important for our community.

I wish ESP32 support.

Nice work, thank you very much.

Someone has to implement that ESP32 support in that case.  
In a perfect scenario, bare metal, without any RTOS or something here.  
AFAIK, there was no attempt to do so.

It is not possible to implement it reliably with an intermediate layer like RTOS (or whatever is here on ESP).  
Because that requires a complete firmware redesign, and the closest that you will get is Linux. MCU.  
(which is fine, if you plan to just connect sensors here, I guess).

Hope that explains something.

Putting together new goals (as well as finishing the previously stated goals) would indeed be nice. Alas, I’m not yet ready to plan out new goals. I’ll look to post them when I have something concrete.

Other developers are certainly welcome to post their goals.

Cheers,
