A description is on instructables at https://www.instructables.com/id/Rotary-Encoder-Button/

The code includes a library that supports up to 3 rotary controls using interrupts.

What I also think is useful here, is that the circuit is good reference material for a battery operated device, and I can see it useful elsewhere. It certainly removes the need for deep sleep and any complexity that that introduces.

+1, really nice!
