wasp-os is an open-source firmware, based on MicroPython, for smart
watches that are based on the nRF52 family of microcontrollers.
Currently this includes the hacker friendly PineTime from Pine64 as
well as the Colmi P8, which is a popular device with watch modders.
For GadgetBridge integration wasp-os is very similar to handling
Espruino/BangleJS: the watch will interact with the bridge by
providing REPL-over-BLE via the Nordic UART service.
wasp-os implements the same JSON-wrapped-in-GB()-function-call
protocol used for BangleJS buy the differences in capability
between the two firmwares lead us to introducing a different
device type... and also a different icon since the lead devices
for wasp-os are square!
I plan to keep as aligned as possible with the BangleJS device
type, however at present the major differences include:
1. Specify the bonding style (wasp-os currently does not support
bonding... so no need to ask).
2. Disable some of the not-yet-implemented features.
3. Reduce the minimum packet size to fix communication reliability
issues with the MicroPython NUS implementation.
4. Switch the date/time setting syntax from JavaScript to MicroPython.
