This page contains information about all kinds of projects, hardware or software that I’m interested in building or using.
Tasmota Zigbee
Zigbee2Tasmota is a lightweight Zigbee solution running on an ESP82xx Wi-Fi chip. Hence it is easier to deploy in your living room or around your home. It is largely inspired from Zigbee2mqtt but it’s a complete rewrite to make it fit on an ESP82xx with 80kB of RAM and only 1MB of flash memory.
Ordered at AliB:
CC2530 with external antenna en CC2530 with external antenna and CC2591 RF front end
The latter is more powerfull.

YubiKey lockscreend
I created a small daemon app that “locks” your screen when the YubiKey is removed.
This could easily be enhanced to create a universal lockscreen app on removal of any USB device.
Target platform is macOS, therefore it needs to have a proper installer. Homebrew is the way to go.
Results so far on github/tisgoud.
