Introduction
Plantbuddy is a solution for monitoring your plants. This is the repository containing the aggregator Firmware for the ESP32C3. Is is responsible for collecting data from the sensors and sending it to the esp-gateway via ESP-Now to ensure long range communication. It is written in bare-metal Rust running via esp-hal and embassy.
