| I built a standalone, offline-first command center for Meshtastic
| mesh networks that runs entirely inside a single HTML file.
| There's no backend, no installation, and no internet connection
| required. It works on laptops, tablets, phones, and some
| smartwatches using only native browser APIs.
|
| Key Features
|
| One self-contained HTML file (51KB)
|
| Works fully offline (PWA)
|
| Connects via Bluetooth, WiFi, or USB Serial
|
| Real-time map of all mesh nodes
|
| Metrics: RSSI, SNR, hop count, routing details
|
| Message console + logs
|
| No frameworks, no build tools, no cloud services
|
| Why I built it Existing tools rely on mobile apps or desktop
| programs that depend on OS permissions, cloud APIs, or network
| access. For emergency communications, off-grid operations,
| research teams, and field deployments, I wanted a universal
| interface that would work anywhere, on any device, under any
| conditions.
|
| Looking for feedback on:
|
| Hardware compatibility (especially T-Watch S3, RAK, Heltec)
|
| Browser behavior across different platforms
|
| Missing features you'd like to see
|
| Ideas for v2 and beyond
|
| This is still early, and feedback is very welcome. Thanks for
| taking a look.
