LightningPiggy on Nostr: Firmware version 6.3.0 is out and running slicker than a greased pig at a county ...
Firmware version 6.3.0 is out and running slicker than a greased pig at a county fair!
Producing this update has been non-trivial, involving complex integration and feature work, building UIs in LVGL and introducing a load of Library and IDE updates. Here are all the juicy tidbits:
General User Experience Improvements:
* Added automatic captive portal redirection for easier setup.
* Shortened access point name for configuration mode (now Piggy Config).
* Enhanced the look of the configuration login page.
Library Updates:
* Adafruit BusIO: 1.15.0 → 1.17.0
* Adafruit GFX Library: 1.11.9 → 1.12.0
* ArduinoJson: 7.3.0 → 7.4.1
* AsyncTCP: 3.3.3 → 3.3.8
* ESPAsyncWebServer: 3.6.2 → 3.7.6
* GxEPD2: 1.5.6 → 1.6.3
* TFT_eSPI: 2.2.20 → 2.5.4
* arduino-esp32: 3.1.1 → 3.2.0
* ESP-IDF update: 5.3.2-282 → 5.4.1-1
You can install it using the Web Installer. If you’re already on version 5.x or later, your existing configuration will be preserved during the upgrade.
Enjoy the update! Stay humble, hog sats!

LightingPiggy is an electronic cash piggy bank for children, that accepts Bitcoin sent over the Lightning Network. It displays payment amounts, messages, and the total satoshis saved.
Our vision is to make bitcoin the savings’ standard for every child, while creating an educational platform to inspire future generations, not only to save in bitcoin, but also to learn to code and build in a free and open-source way.
