archy-messh

Research + firmware project exploring a single LoRa device that can speak, relay, and repeat between three independent mesh networking protocols:

  • Meshtastic
  • MeshCore
  • Reticulum (via RNode-style modem firmware)

Goal: one ESP32-based device that acts as a tri-protocol repeater/bridge — not a fork of any single project, and not affiliated with or dependent on the archy (Archipelago) codebase. This repo is intentionally standalone.

Status

Pre-design. See docs/ARCHITECTURE.md (in progress) for the protocol research and bridge design space.

Layout

  • docs/ — protocol research notes and architecture/design docs
  • firmware/ — device firmware (once design lands)
  • hardware/ — reference hardware notes / board selection

Non-goals (for now)

  • Not reimplementing any of the three protocols from scratch in v1
  • Not targeting non-ESP32 hardware initially
  • Not touching/depending on the archy (Archipelago) repo in any way
