How

This repo is a Rust workspace, it has a shared core library, a terminal CLI and an ESP32. It was designed so that it could be deployed on embdeeded device.

What

A cheap, single-purpose educational device, akin to a Tamagotchi, offers significant benefits for impoverished communities. Its low cost and focused functionality provide targeted and engaging learning experiences without the need for advanced infrastructure like internet or electricity. These devices are easy to distribute, robust, and require minimal maintenance, making them particularly suitable for remote and under-resourced areas.
