Swagbadge 101: Software and the Aiko framework
summary
Overview of the actual build and software: a Wi‑Fi badge (shipped as a few hundred units) built on a LOLIN Lite ESP32 running MicroPython with the Aiko framework providing OLED, button/slider handlers, MQTT connectivity and a web config server. The badge supports automatic firmware updates triggered by a two‑finger combo, runs a schedule app and games, exposes a MicroPython REPL for live edits, and accepts simple add‑ons; firmware and network systems are working and demonstrably updateable.
