BREAKING NEWS 😅 Lightning Piggy has just made a giant leap forward in the development process: the firmware now works in a QEMU ESP32 emulator *with wifi* and full network capabilities!
Getting this set up reduces the typical code-compile-flash-test cycle by an order of magnitude, and is super helpful for step-debugging.
I've documented all the pieces together in one logical process at https://github.com/LightningPiggy/lightning-piggy/blob/master/Emulation.md
The big upside here over closed source proprietary solutions like Wokwi.com, is that this one is... well... open source! Free as in beer, and free as in freedom, to distribute, modify, etc. 😊
