Building for
the curious.
Hey, I'm Seleste — a developer exploring the space between thoughtful design and useful software. I turn ideas into fast, reliable experiences, one project at a time.
Open to interesting collaborations

Things I've been building.
Live from GitHub — the latest experiments and projects.

ESP32 Web Flasher
Flash firmware, inspect serial output, edit sketches, and manage project libraries.
Flash firmware
Choose one or more compiled `.bin` images and set each flash offset.
No firmware images selected yet.
Ready
Connect an Espressif board to begin.
Serial monitor
Read logs and send commands over the board’s serial port.
Serial output will appear here when the monitor is started.
Use the monitor baud rate configured by your sketch. Opening the monitor closes the flasher session; stop it before flashing again.
Firmware source editor
Edit, syntax-highlight, compile with your local toolchain, then queue firmware for flashing.
Build on this computer
Compiler builds run only from this local app for safety. Install Arduino CLI with the ESP32 core, or ESP-IDF and its toolchain. The generated firmware images will be queued in the Flash tab.
arduino-cli compile --fqbn esp32:esp32:esp32 .Compiler output will appear here.
Libraries & components
Find Arduino libraries or add ESP-IDF registry dependencies to your project.
Search the Arduino Library Index to get started.
Search a component by its registry name.
Added dependencies are written to idf_component.yml. ESP-IDF Component Manager fetches them when you build the project.
idf_component.yml
dependencies: idf: ">=5.0"
Install with Arduino CLI
# Add libraries from search results
Device access uses Web Serial and requires Chrome or Edge on HTTPS or localhost. Firmware flashing supports Espressif chips; other microcontrollers need their own browser programmer. esptool-js documentation ↗

04 / A bit about me
Curiosity is my
favorite tool.
Learning out loud, building with intent.
I'm a developer based in Nairobi, Kenya, drawn to the details that make software feel human. Lately, I've been learning Rust and exploring how great interfaces can make complex ideas feel simple.
I like small teams, open source, and projects that leave things a little better than they found them. Still learning every day — these projects are part of that journey.

Got a good question?
Have an idea, a project, or a favorite API? I'd love to hear about it.
