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.

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.
