A small desk display for MakerWorld profile stats
An ESP32-C6 display showing a MakerWorld profile's likes, boosts and downloads, with Claude Code porting the MicroPython firmware to C.
The full story
This small dashboard shows the public stats of a MakerWorld profile, such as likes, boosts and downloads. It runs on a Waveshare ESP32-C6 board with a 1.3-inch LCD, plus a tactile button and an LED ring, in a case designed in Fusion.
On first launch it starts a Wi-Fi access point so settings can be changed from a browser, then runs on its own. A first version was written in MicroPython; Claude Code was then used to port the firmware to C, polish it and add features, and a basic online flashing tool was set up so others can build one.
