The 727-row / 13-column kI18n table no longer compiles into the firmware. TR() now consults only the loaded .lang overlay (bsearch) and falls back to English. deploy/apps/lang/*.lang is the canonical translation source — translators edit those files and PR them; scripts/build/i18n-audit.py (replacing the retired generator) verifies every TR() key in the source is covered by every language file, byte-accurate against C escapes. Reclaims ~400 KB of flash on every board: T-Deck 85.1->75.3%, V4 81.4->71.6%, Pager 87.7->77.8%. The sweep: 94 keys had no translations at all — everything Remote/web access, the P4 antenna dialogs, history-limit texts, DND, keyboard-light toasts, GPS/clock states and all the new Store/Language strings. All are translated in all 13 languages now; the audit reports full coverage (707 keys per file). Migration: a built-in language picked before this claims its file code at boot; if the file is missing the download self-heals in the background (that boot runs English, the next applies it) and retries every boot until it lands. Wi-Fi-less devices stay English until they get one chance to fetch — the honest cost of un-baking 400 KB. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A real touchscreen UI for your mesh radio. · open source · GPL-3.0
Touch-UI MeshCore companion-radio firmware for the LilyGo T-Deck / T-Deck Plus and Heltec V4 + TFT (ESP32-S3).
An LVGL touch UI — map, chat, contacts, channels, settings — split out of
meshcomod. The app depends on a
MeshCore fork via PlatformIO lib_deps.

Architecture
This repo holds only the app: the companion_radio glue, the ui-touch
LVGL UI, the two boards' glue/variants, and platformio.ini. The MeshCore
core is not vendored here — it's pulled as a library via lib_deps from the
ALLFATHER-BV/meshcomod monorepo
(the same repo as the non-touch firmware), pinned by a lean source-only core-*
git tag. The touch-app files this repo owns (TouchPrefsStore, WifiRuntimeStore,
the transports, …) are dropped from the lib via -DMC_VENDORED_TOUCH_APP so they
aren't compiled twice. The build is byte-identical to the original in-tree
meshcomod firmware.
Build
PlatformIO pulls the core fork and all libraries automatically:
pio run -e heltec_v4_tft_companion_radio_usb_tcp_touch # Heltec V4 TFT
pio run -e LilyGo_TDeck_companion_radio_touch # LilyGo T-Deck
# or just `pio run` to build both
Flash with the NVS-preserving 4-component chain (bootloader / partitions /
boot_app0 / firmware at 0x0 / 0x8000 / 0xe000 / 0x10000) so saved Wi-Fi
credentials survive — not a merged image, which 0xFF-pads and wipes NVS.

License
GPL-3.0-or-later — see LICENSE. wadamesh is copyleft: anyone who distributes a build or a fork must also make their source available under the GPL. This keeps the UI open and concentrates community effort instead of fragmenting it into closed forks.
wadamesh incorporates and depends on MeshCore (MIT, © Scott Powell / rippleradios.com) and other third-party components — see NOTICE for the full list and their licenses. MeshCore-derived files keep their MIT notices; the combined work is distributed under the GPL (MIT is GPL-compatible). The MeshCore fork that wadamesh builds against stays MIT on purpose, so its Wi-Fi/BLE hooks remain upstreamable to MeshCore.
