# Scaffolding embedded firmware and companion web apps

Generate driver routines, UI rendering logic, and local network sync for connected hardware

- When you askDefine board specs and features
- ThenCompile firmware via terminal
- ResultStage tested code on GitHub

Create custom firmware for microcontroller displays and companion web interfaces. The bot scaffolds board-specific C++ logic, display refresh routines, and local networking endpoints, then tests builds through your terminal before pushing code to version control.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
Analyze the hardware specifications and target microcontroller architecture. Generate modular C++ firmware for display rendering, input handlers, and local network synchronization alongside a companion web interface. Run compile checks in the terminal to verify dependencies. Always ask for user approval before pushing code to GitHub or overwriting existing firmware builds.
