# Legacy Pico Dashboard

This directory contains the archived Raspberry Pi Pico dashboard implementation.

It is no longer active project firmware.

## Why this was archived

The current dashboard direction is the Waveshare ESP32-S3 touchscreen dashboard communicating with the Cargo ESP32 over WiFi/HTTP REST.

The Pico dashboard path was based around:

- Raspberry Pi Pico / Pico 2 W
- UART communication
- Pico-specific display/touch/buzzer hardware
- Python/MicroPython-style dashboard structure

That architecture is no longer the current plan.

## What may still be useful

Some concepts may still be useful as reference material when building the ESP32-S3 dashboard:

- HTTP client flow
- State model ideas
- Alarm logic concepts
- Screen/view-model structure
- API payload expectations

Treat this as reference only. Do not add new active dashboard code here.

## Current dashboard target

Active dashboard work should go under:

    firmware/esp32-s3-dashboard/

or another explicitly approved ESP32-S3 dashboard firmware location.
