The wide world of esp32 and bringing an IOT product to market. Espressif, the manufacturer of esp32, is a leader in the embedded category by offering a robust sdk and extensive documentation, yet there are many foot cannons and their documentation is misleading, creating a lot of friction in the process of productionizing a device. There's so much involved other than firmware development.

Hardware production is wonderful/terrible and constant learning. A lot of people get tripped up not understanding that the manufacturing process is a product equal to your actual product.

Hit me up if I can help. I've brought a half-dozen devices to market; right now I'm bringing a modular data logger to production and blogging about it at https://blog.supermechanical.com
