While testing this feature briefly that approach did not appear to be a good idea. - noticed that the driving with joystick was a little unintuitive/unexpected (maybe just not used to it?) - BUG that the state does not reset to center when previous state was X-AXIS? Resulting in the armchair to slightly shake randomly at joystick center -> this has to be fixed if this approach is tested again. This reverts commit b2b12fe5de1e16ea2f25dfa4b0c3ac6845024c71.
Firmware for a homemade automated electric armchair.

Installation
Install esp-idf
For this project ESP-IDF v4.4.1 is required (with other versions it might not compile)
#download esp-idf
yay -S esp-idf #alternatively clone the esp-idf repository from github
#run installation script in installed folder
/opt/esp-idf/install.sh
Clone this repo
git clone git@github.com:Jonny999999/armchair_fw
Instal node packages
For the react app packages have to be installed with npm TODO: add this to cmake?
cd react-app
npm install
Compilation
react-webapp
For the webapp to work on the esp32 it has to be built. When flashing, the folder react-app/build is flashed to siffs (which is used as webroot) onto the esp32. The following command builds the react webapp and creates this folder TODO: add this to flash target with cmake?
cd react-app
#compile
npm run build
#remove unwanted license file (filename too long for spiffs)
rm build/static/js/main.8f9aec76.js.LICENSE.txt
Note: Use npm start for starting the webapp locally for testing
