Below you will find a explanation on how we intend to do the branching and releases of future firmware versions. New features, and experimental stuff, is poured into the development branch (master). New features that cannot wait until next v2.1 release will be branched into v2.0.1 (this might not happen if no ground breaking feature is added). Once we have reached all the milestones for version 2.0.0 we will freeze the source from that point and fork that into a branch called v2.0, only bug fixes is going into that branch. The legacy branch is the archive, a point zero if you like, which is the exact copy of the source code before we started the re-write. The current master branch on GitHub is where all the development goes into. We later switched this to the correct name. So after a somewhat bad decision in the early days of the re-write project we started to call the development branch 'Mega' instead of the more accepted name 'Master'. This is a bit tight for our goal to add many more useful features to the firmware. Prior to mega we allowed smaller mem-sizes (sub-megabyte, aka 512kb) for the official releases. We started to call the extensive re-write of the source code 'Mega', which is an hint of the size needed for the next big stable release.

Well, this is a short version of our naming convention here at the ESP Easy initiative. Do you want to help us with that? Read more in this announcement here. We have some big (even huge) features that we want to give you but time is scarce and we need to quit our daytime jobs. The plan is to make this an awesome 'operating system' for IoT. There are so called 'nightly builds' which can be found on the Releases page. Configuration of the ESP Easy is entirely web based, so once you've got the firmware loaded, you don't need any other tool besides a common web browser.ĮSP Easy also offers limited 'low level' actuator functions but due to system instability, this could be less useful in real life applications.ĮSP Easy is under continuous development as can be seen on the GitHub page and on the Forum. The ESP Easy firmware can be used to turn the ESP module into an easy multifunction sensor device for Home Automation solutions like Domoticz.
