The future of this code base

[HacK]

Recently Maxim released a similar repository delivering the same functionality, based on my code.
This code is still in development and I would not run it for real life accessories just yet.
At the same time, Maxim does know how to write code a lot better than me.
I intend to invest in his code and bring it to the level where my code is currently, and beyond.

My code had also hit the limits of memory and flash size and I feel that Maxim's code will allow to overcome these better than my spaghetti code.

Finally, because he based his code in esp-open-rtos, more drivers and support are available to make real accessories come to life.

So, the effort has just been shifted sideways and up one gear.
I hope you will also join that bandwagon.

What if you would abandon ESP8266 for ESP32?

[HacK]

That would still not make me a better programmer ;-) Maxim, others and myself have started with the ESP32 already, so stay tuned on his repo’s Myself I am making the OTA work, slow, but surely getting there, most of the PoC already passed. See my repo ‘ota’. Because we know that updates will continue to come all the time ;-)

can someone make a video with instructions on how to make a homekit accessory from esp8266

I think, it's very grown-up to join forces with a cleaner code base, overcoming your own ego! You still proved the concept where others (like me) shied away and encouraged others to pick up your work and improve on it. GZ! G3
