The four capabilities that kept third-party apps a sketch of a built-in one:
* wada.map the firmware's own tiles, projection and cache inside an app
page, with its own capped pool so it never evicts the Map tab's
* wada.ui.list the missing "pick one of N" widget; rows are real buttons, so
keyboard and trackball nav walk them for free
* on_packet each frame delivered once instead of polling a 16-deep ring,
which sampled rather than observed
* wada.mesh.discover the active zero-hop probe, behind its own permission
because it spends every neighbour's airtime, not just ours
Plus the surface those need to be useful: packet identity reported only where
the frame actually carries it, exact micro-degree coordinates (Lua is built
LUA_32BITS, so its floats were quietly costing a metre), altitude and satellite
time, wada.geo, wada.ui.input, named and one-shot timers, http_post, windowed
fs.read, and wada.sys.env on a hardware gate rather than the memory one.
Fixes:
* Both ESP32-P4 targets could not link. g_wifi_last_disc_reason was defined in
src/main.cpp, which the IDF builds never compile, so all nine S3 envs stayed
green while Tanmatsu and T-Display P4 were dead.
* Map zoom level was invisible in +/- buttons mode; the readout was hidden with
the slider it was anchored to.
* Hungarian and Dutch held each other's "No SD card" translation.

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) → web flasher (TODO — see below)
wadamesh.com →CF (HTTPS) → landing page (later)
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 ✅ at
flasher.wadamesh.com—deploy/flasher/(esp-web-tools / Web Serial, board picker, manifests pointing at the rolling/latest/merged bins;release.shrefreshes/latest/each publish). - Apex
wadamesh.com301-redirects to the flasher — activate by pointing thewadamesh.comA record at the VPS in Cloudflare (it's still on the parking IP).
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.
