Requested by dreirund: with no GPS fix, no Wi-Fi and no companion app there was no way to set the clock at all. That is not cosmetic, because message timestamps are built from it, so a device used purely offline could not hold a correct one. Settings, Clock now takes local time as "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM". mktime() reads it through the configured zone, the same zone the clock is displayed in, so what you type is what you see rather than something you convert to UTC yourself, and tm_isdst is left at -1 so summer time is not an hour out. The field is prefilled with the current reading, which makes a correction an edit of a digit or two rather than typing a full stamp on a device keyboard. Rejected values are refused the same way every other clock source is: below the send-timestamp floor is not accepted, so a mistyped year cannot walk the ratchet backwards. All nine S3 envs and both ESP32-P4 targets green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <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, Heltec V4 + TFT and eight other boards (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, each board's 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.
Lua apps use the on-device SDK described in LUA_APPS.md. For WAV/MP3 playback, including a ready-to-sideload transport test app and exact SD and internal-storage paths, see AUDIO_PLAYBACK_TESTING.md.
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.
