Projects

A place for articles and side projects that don't fit anywhere else.

Most of my projects and examples are not found in this section. They are embedded into the articles about the components they use.

Sample code for creating precise CO2 air quality sensors based on Sensirion SCD30 can i.e. be found right on the page about SCD30. Should you prefer to use this sensor with ESPHome, you find a configuration for such a sensor right in the section about ESPHome.

The static structure of this site helps me better organize my articles.

You as a valued visitor should simply use the search box to quickly find the information you are looking for.

Search For Topics

All articles are extensively indexed for easy discoverability.

When you open this sites search box, simply enter what you are after, and view matching articles while you type:

  1. Click the magnifying glass icon at the top right of every page to search this site.
  2. Enter a component name such as SCD30: you are immediately presented with a list of all articles related to your search phrase, including example code as well as tech specs.
  3. Search for a soft topic such as air quality or CO2: once again, while you still type your search, you are presented with matching articles and can quickly find information and examples.

Projects

So what is the Projects section used for?

It’s simply a place for me to put any article that doesn’t (yet) fit into any other category, and that in fact may not even be completed:

  • Preliminary: articles you find here might be temporarily located here - as I may not yet have figured out the best place to put them
  • Incomplete: articles in this section may not yet be completed: I might still be working on it. If that’s the case, check back tomorrow to see if the article evolved.

Comments

Please do leave comments below. I am using utteran.ce, an open-source and ad-free light-weight commenting system.

Here is how your comments are stored

Whenever you leave a comment, a new github issue is created on your behalf.

  • All comments become trackable issues in the Github Issues section, and I (and you) can follow up on them.

  • There is no third-party provider, no disrupting ads, and everything remains transparent inside github.

Github Users Yes, Spammers No

To keep spammers out and comments attributable, all you do is log in using your (free) github account and grant utteranc.es the permission to submit issues on your behalf.

If you don’t have a github account yet, go get yourself one - it’s free and simple.

If for any reason you do not feel comfortable with letting the commenting system submit issues for you, then visit Github Issues directly, i.e. by clicking the red button Submit Issue at the bottom of each page, and submit your issue manually. You control everything.

Discussions

For chit-chat and quick questions, feel free to visit and participate in Discussions. They work much like classic forums or bulletin boards. Just keep in mind: your valued input isn’t equally well trackable there.
