A release with twenty-odd notes pushed the whole install flow off the screen, so the box that is meant to be a summary had become the page. It is a native <details> now, collapsed on load, reading "See what's new in beta_78 - 24 changes". The count matters: a bare "click here" asks people to gamble a tap, while a number lets them decide whether they care. Native rather than scripted so it opens with the keyboard, works without JavaScript, and does not need a click handler; the JS only fills the count and forces it closed on each channel switch, so flipping stable/beta cannot leave a stale panel open. The default disclosure triangle is hidden and replaced with one that rotates, because that marker renders differently in every browser. Markup verified as balanced and the element confirmed to carry no "open" attribute, which is what makes it start collapsed. I could not render it in a browser to check visually: the harness refuses to navigate to localhost, and a file:// page is served as a static snapshot with no JavaScript, so the count and the collapse behaviour are unverified on screen.

wadamesh.com infrastructure
Distribution stack for wadamesh: a VPS nginx origin behind Cloudflare.
tiles.wadamesh.com →CF (HTTP, edge-cached) → nginx → OpenStreetMap / OpenTopoMap
firmware.wadamesh.com →CF (cache bins) → nginx → /srv/wadamesh/firmware
flasher.wadamesh.com →CF (HTTPS) → 301 → wadamesh.com
wadamesh.com →CF (HTTPS) → nginx → /srv/wadamesh/site
Map tile styles. The default /{z}/{x}/{y}.jpg route serves OpenStreetMap
(the firmware default). An opt-in OpenTopoMap topographic style is served from
/opentopo/{z}/{x}/{y}.jpg (explicit OSM alias at /osm/...); the device requests
it only when the user enables Map → Options → Topographic map. Legal: OpenTopoMap
map tiles are © OpenTopoMap (CC-BY-SA) over © OpenStreetMap contributors
(ODbL) + SRTM — the touch UI shows that attribution when topo is active, and the
14-day disk cache keeps each tile hitting OpenTopoMap at most once per fortnight
(their tile-usage policy asks for a contactable UA + caching, both of which the
transcode service provides). Deploying the topo routes = update
tiles.wadamesh.com.conf + tile-transcode.py, then
systemctl restart wadamesh-tile-transcode && nginx -t && systemctl reload nginx
and purge the Cloudflare cache for tiles.wadamesh.com/opentopo/*.
The firmware fetches tiles + the update-check over plain HTTP (on-device HTTPS isn't viable — mbedTLS needs ~30 KB heap, only ~5 KB is free post-Wi-Fi), so the tile + firmware hosts must stay reachable over HTTP. Cloudflare provides the edge cache, HTTPS for the flasher, and hides the origin IP (so no IP lives in this repo or the firmware).
1. VPS (origin)
sudo apt install nginx
sudo mkdir -p /srv/wadamesh/firmware/releases/TOUCH /var/cache/nginx/wadamesh-tiles
sudo cp deploy/nginx/tiles.wadamesh.com.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/
sudo cp deploy/nginx/firmware.wadamesh.com.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/tiles.wadamesh.com.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/firmware.wadamesh.com.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
sudo nginx -t && sudo systemctl reload nginx
2. Cloudflare
- DNS:
A/AAAArecords fortiles,firmware,flasher,@→ the VPS IP, all Proxied (orange cloud). - SSL/TLS: mode Flexible (CF↔origin HTTP) is enough since the origin is
HTTP-only. Do NOT enable "Always Use HTTPS" on
tiles.orfirmware.— the firmware needs plain HTTP there. - Cache Rules:
tiles.wadamesh.com/*→ Eligible for cache, Edge TTL ~14d.firmware.wadamesh.com/releases/*/*.bin→ cache, Edge TTL ~1d.firmware.wadamesh.com/releases/TOUCH(the listing) → short TTL (~60s) or Bypass, so new releases appear promptly.
3. Publishing a release
From a wadamesh checkout (builds both boards, refreshes the listing, rsyncs up):
WADAMESH_VPS=user@your-vps scripts/release.sh beta_2
The on-device check GETs http://firmware.wadamesh.com/releases/TOUCH, finds the
highest beta_<N>, and (once OTA-over-Wi-Fi is re-enabled) pulls
…/releases/TOUCH/beta_<N>/<board>.bin.
Done
- Web flasher ✅ — the guided install page at
wadamesh.com, served fromdeploy/site/and published byscripts/deploy-site.sh(esp-web-tools / Web Serial, per-board install buttons + .bin downloads, manifests generated per release byscripts/build/gen-flasher-meta.pyinto the/latest/and/latest-beta/feeds thatrelease.shrefreshes each publish). flasher.wadamesh.com301-redirects to the apex (seedeploy/nginx/flasher.wadamesh.com.conf) — it is an alias, not its own page.deploy/flasher/is the original standalone flasher page. No deploy script publishes it —deploy-site.shshipsdeploy/site/only — so it is effectively an offline/local copy kept in parity by hand. Retire it or wire it into a deploy target; until then, treatdeploy/site/index.htmlas the only install page users can reach.
TODO before public launch
- Re-enable OTA-over-Wi-Fi in the firmware (currently it version-checks then defers to manual flashing).
- Flip
wadameshrepo public = launch. - Decide tile-proxy sharing: dedicated
tiles.wadamesh.com(this config) vs reusing the meshcomod proxy.
Never commit the VPS IP, SSH keys, or
WADAMESH_VPS. Cloudflare fronts the origin; the deploy target is supplied via the environment at publish time.
