Could you give me some software installation instructions? You didn't provide a read me and this project looks sick.

Hi, thank you. Are you looking for a clarification of something in particular? The project is targeting a Raspberry Pi Pico so all you need to do to install is to first build the code (use the Makefile provided) and then copy the binary file onto the pico board, connected to your machine through the USB connector. While connecting thePico to your machine you need to keep the white button on the board itself pressed and you can release if after the USB connector is plugged in. This will mount the Pico storage as a drive where you can copy the binary file you just compiled. Very simple :+1:

If you want a simple script to do the above:

# Build the Docker image used as build environment
$ make docker
# Build the code within a Docker container
$ make build
# Copy the binary onto the pico
$ cp build/*.uf2 /media/<username>/RPI-RP2/
