  "description": "Gateway firmware that bridges MeshCore LoRa mesh networks with MQTT brokers, enabling bidirectional message flow between LoRa devices and MQTT-based applications. Runs as a full MeshCore repeater with WiFi connectivity, serial configuration menu, persistent NVS storage, real-time statistics, remote MQTT commands, NTP clock sync, and TLS support. Targets ESP32 + LilyGo LoRa32 V2.1 hardware.",
