MeshCore (Official)

The official MeshCore firmware — a lightweight C++ library and firmware for multi-hop packet routing over LoRa radios. It powers decentralized, self-healing mesh networks for off-grid, emergency and tactical communication, with prebuilt images and a web flasher.

CubeCell MeshCore

A minimal MeshCore-compatible repeater firmware for Heltec CubeCell boards (HTCC-AB01, AB02, AC01). Extends mesh coverage with flood routing, supports authenticated remote management via companion app, and includes automatic daily health reports. Optimized for solar-powered deployments.

EastMesh

EastMesh firmware builds for MeshCore, with MQTT repeaters, WiFi companions, and simple release downloads for supported boards. Features an optional local HTTPS config panel on supported ESP32 targets, JWT auth using device identity, and battery reporting.

xJARiD 2026.6.3

EasySkyMesh

A power-saving oriented MeshCore firmware with experimental, advanced features and bug fixes aimed at ultra-low-power repeater and sensor deployments. Targets extended battery life (e.g. ~16µA power-off) with the intent of upstreaming improvements into MeshCore.

danst0 2.4.8

FieldMesh

A MeshCore firmware fork for outdoor use — GPS tracking, off-grid mode with client repeat, SOS alerts, and standalone capabilities. Features message history browsing on-device, text input and send via joystick (Wio Tracker L1), and headless device support.

MCLite

A lightweight off-grid communicator firmware for the LilyGo T-Deck Plus and T-Watch Ultra. Purpose-built for emergency and outdoor communication — no internet, no cell towers needed. SD card configuration, web flasher, and room server support. Compatible with MeshCore apps.

Meck

A MeshCore companion firmware fork focused on enabling BLE and WiFi connectivity for the LilyGo T-Deck Pro, T-Deck Max, and T5 E-Paper S3 Pro. Features a full touch UI with on-device keyboard, games, voice notes over LoRa, web browser, SMS, and a configuration launcher with OTA updates.

pelgraine 1.12.2

Meck-P4

A port of Meck (a MeshCore fork) to the LilyGo T-Display P4, targeting the ESP32-P4 main MCU. The onboard ESP32-C6 provides WiFi companion connectivity to the MeshCore app; BLE is not yet enabled. Features a full touch UI with virtual keyboard, channel messaging, repeater admin, trace route, position adverts, and private channels.

pelgraine 0.6.2-patch

Meshcomod

A multi-transport companion firmware built on MeshCore that exposes USB, Bluetooth and TCP connectivity simultaneously, so phones, web clients and Home Assistant can all talk to one radio at once. Adds runtime Wi-Fi config and an on-device UI.

ALLFATHER-BV 1.16.0.4

MeshCore Low-Power

A power-optimised MeshCore firmware with deep sleep, a full companion display UI with multi-transport connectivity (BLE + USB + WiFi in a single build), advanced radio and network controls, a browser-based configuration portal, and battery-life profiling — built for multi-day off-grid operation.

MeshCore Solo

A companion-focused MeshCore firmware fork with extended features and UI enhancements — offline GPS navigation (waypoints, compass, GPX export), sensor screens, favourites dial, screen lock, auto-reply bot, and a rich tools screen. Targets Seeed nRF52 boards with unified BLE + USB builds.

MeshCore Wio Tracker L1 Pro

A companion firmware fork dedicated to the Seeed Wio Tracker L1 Pro, with T9 text input, on-screen keyboard, hardware keyboard support, RX log, repeater stats, and page navigation. Ships prebuilt UF2 files for easy flashing.

MeshCoreNG

A "Next Gen" fork of MeshCore developed in the Netherlands, focused on making repeaters smarter so larger, busier meshes stay stable. It adds a dense-mesh foundation — flood-advert forwarding control, congestion/density stats, hardware CAD channel-busy detection, node-based retransmit spreading and duplicate-hearing suppression — plus an optional internet bridge for linking isolated RF islands, all while staying protocol-compatible with existing MeshCore clients.

MichTronics 1.1.2

MeshCoreTerm

A retro-themed companion firmware based on MeshCore, featuring a rich on-screen keyboard, hardware navigation (D-pad, joystick, trackball), management features for device name, WiFi, BLE PIN, radio parameters, and GPS configuration. Supports multiple devices with prebuilt binaries and no online update requirement.

Offband Mesh

A MeshCore fork for cross-role firmware enhancements and optimization. Active roles include companion/observer with WiFi+MQTT observation publishing, NimBLE migration, web UI, and repeater with MQTT-to-Mosquitto bridging, burst-WiFi telemetry, heap and power tuning.

OffbandMesh 1.0.0

Saitama

An open-source standalone firmware for LoRa mesh devices built on MeshCore, designed for the LilyGo T-Deck and T-Deck Plus. Provides smartphone-grade messaging, GPS maps, encrypted comms, and more — all running directly on the device with no phone, internet, or license required.

Wadamesh

A touch-UI MeshCore firmware for the LilyGo T-Deck / T-Deck Plus and Heltec V4 TFT (ESP32-S3), built with LVGL. Split out from meshcomod. Provides a full touch-driven companion experience with on-screen keyboard and WiFi connectivity.

ZephCore

A ground-up port of MeshCore from Arduino to the Zephyr RTOS. Replaces the Arduino loop with Zephyr's event-driven primitives so the CPU sleeps between events, while aiming for full protocol compatibility with stock MeshCore firmware and the MeshCore mobile apps.

MeshCore T-Beam 1W

Dedicated MeshCore firmware builds for the LilyGo T-Beam 1 Watt, providing prebuilt binaries for easy flashing without compiling from source.

MeshCore-Evo

An improved repeater-focused fork of MeshCore that bundled pending upstream PRs and improvements for dense meshes — notably flood-advert traffic mitigation and enhanced `denyf *` handling. Largely superseded once official 1.16.0 added native flood traffic management.
