Welcome to the DisasterRadio git wiki!

Current goals:

• Compile firmware for an ESP32 dev board
• Sync up ESP32 branch with master (was already pretty well synced)
• Send LoRa message between two ESP32 dev boards (works on LILY TTGO dev boards)
• Rewrite routing protocol as library that is portable between simulator, ESP8266, and ESP32. (Completed as a new repo, LoRaLayer2)
• Design, develop interactive shell to access over serial (and wifi? telnet? ssh?)
• Merge ESP32 code into master branch (created new dirs, added arg to fetch deps, see PR #29)
• Write up API doc for LoRaLayer2/Layer1
• Update documentation of firmware and hardware (suggested boards, solar panels, batteries, etc)
• Test SD card on ESP32 (working! moved SD card code to new repo, AsyncSDServer)
• revisit map tile webapp
• implement routing protocol on real hardware (routing has been daemonized, still need to test thoroughly)
• write logic for routed messages
• release LoRaLayer2 as arduino library

Here are some pages:

• Power: Power consumption, solar power, batteries, etc.
• LoRa: Info on the LoRa protocol
• Antennas and impedance matching: Learning resources and VNA comparison
• Protocol: Details networking protocol used in disaster.radio messages
• Materials Cost Breakdown: Aiming for lowest cost of reliable and readily-available components!
• Use Cases: Real-life examples of communities that could benefit from this project, whose particular needs and environments should principally shape future development.
