Documentation for nanogram available here for awhile

Edit: Dont be a ungrateful Be nice pls. I put a lot of time, effort, and my own money into making this. I'm choosing to freely share it :)

Yes I get help from LLM's. Review the code if you think it's unsafe, or just move on and don't use it. Happy to answer any technical questions.

Edit 2: Expanded source code for termux version here.

Edit 3: Expanded source for pi version here

Apparently it was all ai generated and the author doesn't actually know how to program. Just look at their responses in the .ml cross-post, that's not someone whose software I would trust.

    And it's worse because they hide the Python code, which means that they can't use tools like uv or ruff to check that everything works properly. I don't understand why people do this.

    I dont understand why people do this

    Charitably: AI turbocharged dunning-kruger

    Less charitable: Malware delivery.

    There is no good reason why they couldn't have a normal source tree, that they pack into a single shell script in CI.

    Here is the source tree.

    Sorry, but a photo of a directory structure is not a source tree.

    Your git repo consists of 4 files, a readme, a licence, and two packed shell scripts.

    If you have an actual published source repo, link people to it.

    So just a expanded file structure directory is what you want? The script executable expands to each individual piece once run.

    What do you mean a actual published source repo? I do not understand how its not that. Everything is packaged into one script.

    Yes. Separate out each part out. You are currently publishing the equivalent of of a compiled binary. Split it up, and use a script to "compile" it back into the mega shell script.

    It means that changes to each file can tracked (and audited) individually, you can conditionally compile bits in or out, and most usefully, you can write tests for the individual components.

    You can still have that script, but put it on the releases page. Git works best with actual source code and it doesn't belong there. You should also add an extra script that generates one of those 'compiled' scripts to the git repo, so that people can do it themselves.

    Also the normal and rpi versions are two completely independent implementations of the same software. So now the LLMs have twice the maintenance load.

    I didn't diff the two files but even the startup and control code appears to be custom for each version.
