Claude Code guides for building RepRapFirmware and an ESP32 NFC filament sensor

RRF_Claude collects plain-English guides for non-programmers doing hardware work with Claude Code. One compiles RepRapFirmware for Duet3D printer boards on Windows or macOS and adds features to it. Another wires two PN5180 NFC readers to an ESP32 while the agent writes firmware for Bambu Lab and OpenPrintTag spool tags. The repo shows no photos or build results.

Briefing

The RepRapFirmware guide has Claude find the dependency branches that match a chosen release, build the unmodified firmware first and compare its size with Duet3D's official binary. Claude then appends the CRC32 the board needs to boot; for the Mini 5+, the CRC goes into the .bin before the UF2 is made. A worked example adds a format() function for number formatting, which the guide tests from the DuetWebControl console.

The NFC guide is a ready-made prompt for ESP-IDF firmware in which the two readers share one SPI bus and each reader's RF field goes off before the next is selected. It recommends a powered USB hub. The RepRapFirmware guide says its steps were done end to end over a few days and puts the first build at 45 to 90 minutes.
