But this stuff is *hard*!
Questions asked on the "Native SDK" section of the forum seem to go unanswered...so it's going to be hard to build up a 'critical mass' of people who learned enough to be able to share the load and answer questions in the future.
Googling for information is incredibly difficult because 99% of the hits are from people using the ESP as a serial=>WiFi interface on Arduino...which is very different from what we're trying to do here. The remaining 1% seems to mostly be Lua folks...which makes finding information on native coding exceedingly frustrating!
So is there a better place to ask questions about the native SDK code?
