This repository serves as a collection of resources created in my journey to learn & utilize LoRa based communications with Meshtastic.

The goal here is to create simple & clean modules to interface with the hardware in a way that can be used to expand the possibilities of the devices capabilities.

• Hardware Options
• Setup Hardware
• Setup a T-Deck
• Firmware Hacks & Customization
• MQTT Notes

• Meshtastic Serial/TCP Interface
• Meshtastic MQTT Interface
• Meshtastic IRC Relay / Bridge

• Devices must have Wifi turned off when going mobile. Upon leaving my house with WiFi still enabled, the UI & connection was EXTREMELY laggy & poor. Couldn't even type well...
• Devices using a MQTT with TLS will reboot loop.
• A fix for the reboot loop is simply disabling MQTT over serial with meshtastic --set mqtt.tls_enabled false
• Enabling JSON with MQTT causes messages to not be encrypted in the MQTT server..

• Asyncronous meshtastic interface
• Documentation on MQTT bridging for high availability
• Bridge for IRC to allow channel messages to relay over Meshtastic & all Meshtastic events to relay into IRC. (IRC to Meshtastic will require a command like !mesh <message here> to avoid overloading the traffic over LoRa)

• Meshtastic PortNum List
