Weekly #17
Launch of findparts.in , new blogposts from Vishnu, and a lot more this week at the Makerville Community!
Links and discussions
- findparts.in - made by hackers from Lagrange Point in BLR - is a quick search site for electronics components.
- See their x.com thread
- This is cool because Arnav and Rithwik have crawled and indexed a few sites so far, and that's easier said than done
- We have our vendor list on the wiki - but it's still quite tedious to go through them and search for something in particular manually
- Ofcourse we have already started spamming them with feature requests :) - see thread on the group here
- Vishnu wrote a nice post on how to integrate the Designed and Made in India Zerodrag ELRS Receiver with Arduino
- Vishnu's awesome series on learning assembly using STM8 has a new post - push buttons with interrupt
