+ | Since the begging of electronics probably every engineer developed his own dedicated programming or debugging tool. | ||
+ | This is just mine, packed with features and made available for all. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === not a smart device: === | ||
+ | |||
+ | While it is packed with features, it is just a debugging and hacking tool and you are the brain behind it. | ||
+ | You still need to know about electronics (e.g. the difference between push-pull and open-drain driving modes) and have a basic understanding of the protocol you want to talk. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === not an Internet-of-Things device: === | ||
+ | |||
+ | It comes with no network connectivity. | ||
+ | Its purpose is to debug and hack devices locally, not to provide a gateway to remotely control other devices. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === not community driven: === | ||
+ | |||
+ | This device is not the result of a collaborative work in a forum with 1000 pages and chaotic status. | ||
+ | I developed it and actively support it. | ||
+ | I also actually also use it in my everyday work, and thus have an interest of keeping the quality high.\\ | ||
+ | Nothing prevents you from building it yourself or forking it though. | ||
+ | Both hardware and software are open-source and available here, and you are welcome to submit bug reports or patches. | ||
