How YOS-ESP is built, the apps and games that run on it, and how device makers can use it.
Your device, your apps: YOS-ESP for device makers
If you make touch-screen hardware, here's what YOS-ESP gives you, and the places I think it fits best, from kitchens and factory floors to gyms and classrooms.
The games shelf
Board games for two to four people around one screen, and a couple of puzzles for one. What's on the shelf, and why a big touch screen on a table makes such a good game board.
Round Timer: a fitness and martial arts timer
A round and rest timer for boxing, martial arts and any interval training. Set your own rounds, rest and warning, read it from across the room, and hear a sound at every change.
Today's tasks, on the desk: Todoist Companion and Asana Companion
Two small apps that show what's due today and what's overdue, and let you tick things off without reaching for your phone.
Polar H10 Companion: your heart, on the desk
Live heart rate, training zones, recovery numbers and the strap's own ECG, on a big screen in front of you instead of a phone in your pocket. Every session is saved, can be replayed, and can be exported.
How the pieces fit: identity, licences, trials and YApps
What happens between pressing "buy" and seeing the app on your desk. A plain-language tour of device identity, licences, trials, YApps, the SDK and the UX framework.
What is YOS-ESP?
Firmware, an app store and everything in between, for ESP32 touch-screen boards. What's in it, what it costs, and who I built it for.
