I'm looking for this / ESP32-c3 Power + Keyboard?

[Maingron]

I recently started building a NAS, where I want to use an ESP32-c3 to remotely control the power status.
Would it technically be possible to get both this keyboard thing simultaneously with another script running?

I'm new to ESP32 stuff, and I believe you only get one main loop, but this would make it even more useful.

Also, great job, assuming it works! I was thinking about such script lately.

I'll look into it at a later point! - Does is work with an EPS32-c3 too?

This wont work on ESP32-c3. Especially because it uses a device with a screen, and wired as in lilygo t-dongle. You can modify the code to suit your needs if you want, maybe use the initial version as is simpler, Now I am working to make it secure and the code gets more hairy.

@larrylart on one side that's unfortunate, on the other side I appreciate the effort! 😌
I'm not a c guy, unfortunately, but luckily the esp32 keyboard isn't a critical requirement for me anyway. And if it becomes a critical requirement, it's probably best to invest in the proper ESP32 for this project. The esp32s are incredibly cheap anyway!

Usually I'm a fan of universal software, but in this case it really doesn't matter much imo! These few bucks don't compensate for the required work.

Keep it up! 😌

Btw, I ported the current dongle code to work with non screen esp32 s3 versions as well, as the one below (waveshare zero) - you can get this for as little as $4. While at it, I had quick try at esp32 c3 but unfortunately it does not support native USB HID.
