PleaseDontCode
FreemiumAI that writes and flashes firmware for ESP32 and Arduino
What is PleaseDontCode?
PleaseDontCode generates firmware for ESP32, Arduino and more than 100 other boards from a description of what the device should do. It also draws a wiring schematic from the sensors and actuators you pick, aimed at makers and small hardware teams.
The flow has three steps: choose a board and describe the behavior in chat, let the AI draw the schematic and write code, then flash it by USB or WiFi. Deployed devices can be updated over the air and monitored remotely.
Credits cover each schematic generation, code generation or edit, and project finalization, which compiles and fixes errors automatically. They reset monthly, and one device is free with no credit card.
