This is an unbelievably impressive project and a killer write up, very satisfying. I wonder if the author looked into using Slint [1] for the UI, given the codegen bloat issues they had with buoyant (which also looks very cool). I haven't used either, but I've done a few projects with Embassy and am always looking for an excuse to try embedded GUI tools

Heya, I tried using slint first, but slint needs even more flash, and an allocator on top. Just adding slint (with an empty UI) exhausted my binary size limit.
