The full story

The maker wanted a dedicated ROM burning setup rather than a laptop, so with Claude built a full GUI for the T48 programmer on a spare M5Stack Tab5 tablet. It is based on the minipro code and is GPLv3.

With the T48 plugged in it can blank check, write and verify any ROM minipro supports, with a search for device types. ROM files go on via an SD card or a simple captive-portal web interface.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.

Privacy. No accounts. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) only if you accept them; no ads or cross-site tracking. Searches are counted anonymously (just the words) to show what's popular, and so are clicks on Ask Claude (just the count).
