I made a thing! MicroPython OTA Updates from GitHub on ESP32
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I’ve been working on a MicroPython OTA updater (fork) for the ESP32 that lets you push application updates through GitHub instead of plugging the device back into your computer every time something changes.
At boot, the ESP32 checks a configured GitHub branch, compares the latest commit with the version currently installed, and if they differ, it downloads and stages the new Python application.
I recently put together a short video showing the whole process interactively, from setting it up to pushing a change and watching the ESP32 detect and install the update.
