+## Hardware Design
|
|
|
+The schematics and PCB were designed in KiCad. I'm currently working on cleaning up the files / integrating them into a Git repo so they can be uploaded on GitHub. (Bothering me will likely accelerate this.)

|
+## Firmware Specifics
|
|
|
+The firmware is based on tuanpm's MQTT repository (thanks man!). It's been heavily modified to suit the requirements of IdeasX. The esp-open-sdk is used to build the firmware. The latest version of the SDK is always used.
