hpwit/ESPLiveScript — monthly activity digest

What landed on hpwit/ESPLiveScript, month by month. External-context reference — a factual log of a friend repo's activity, not projectMM's own history or roadmap. Newest month on top. The reusable prompt that generates these lives in README.md.

The library: Yves Bazin's (hpwit) C-like compiler/interpreter for the ESP32 — small scripts (e.g. LED effects) compiled and run live on-device without a full recompile-and-flash cycle. Summarised via the GitHub commits API.

Branch note: main is quiet (last touched June 2025), but this repo develops on a long series of version branches (v2…v4.3, plus vjson/vjson2/vdrop/memory*), and that's where the recent work is. The activity below is read across those branches, not just main.

August 2026

No activity. Nothing landed on main in August 2026, and nothing moved on any of the 37 other branches either, including the version branches where the work normally happens. The newest of those, vjson2, last moved on 2026-02-15; main last moved in June 2025.

No issues were opened or closed. No release; the most recent is 1.3.2 from February 2025.

Checked: repos/hpwit/ESPLiveScript/commits?sha=main for 2026-08-01..2026-09-01 (0), and the same window on all 38 branches individually, version branches included (0 on every one); releases published (none); issue search repo:hpwit/ESPLiveScript is:issue created:2026-08-01..2026-08-31 and the same with closed: (0 results each).

July 2026

No user-facing activity: no commits on main or any of the 38 version branches (v2.x/v3.x/v4.x, vjson/vjson2/vdrop, dev, mem*) in July 2026, and no notable issues. (Latest commit on main predates the window — June 2025; the newest commit anywhere is vjson2, February 2026.)

Checked: commits author-dated 2026-07-01..2026-07-31 on main and every one of the 38 branches — 0 on each; issues created / closed / updated 2026-07-01..2026-07-31 (0 each); PRs created in-window (0); no versioned release published in July 2026.

June 2026

No user-facing activity: no commits on main or any of the ~30 version branches (v2.x/v3.x, dev, mem*) in June 2026, and no notable issues. (Latest commit on main predates the window — June 2025.)

Checked: commits author-dated 2026-06-01..2026-06-30 on main and every version branch (v2…v3.3, dev, mem2…mem4, memory) — 0 on each; issues created / closed / updated 2026-06-01..2026-06-30 (0 each); PRs created in-window (0); no versioned release published in June 2026.

February 2026

Latest in-window activity, on the vjson2 branch.

  • JSON exchange refinements (vjson2) — continued work on the script↔host JSON path begun in mid-2025, plus a code-refactoring cleanup pass.

March 2025 (and earlier 2025, on the v4.x branches)

The v4 → v4.3 line, Jan–Mar 2025.

  • New HSV function with a FastLED-style example; register-variable handling and array management improved for speed.
  • Documentation + interrupts work; assorted bug corrections. This is the most substantial recent feature stretch.

Mid-2025 baseline (main, June 2025, tag 1.3.2)

  • A JSON option/return path (enjoy json) so scripts can exchange JSON values with the host firmware; interpreter speedups; a "does this function exist?" pre-call check; void* parameter support.

No main-branch commits fall in the Sept 2025 – May 2026 window; the in-window work lives on vjson2. This file gets a new ## <Month Year> section as either main or the active version branch sees further commits.
