Super cool! One thought that would make this way more useful to me (and probably a thousand times more complicated, sorry) is if it had a way to split out “GPIO” subroutines from the main app, and schedule them separately. So GPIO would become an addressable unit like pods or load balancers in k8s.

The idea is I could specify something like “I have this app that needs to pull data from a GPIO labeled as a ds18b20 and outdoors” and it takes care of scheduling my app, starting a ds18b20 reader, and networks them together. I never need to know if they’re on the same esp32, separate ones, or in a crazy alternate world the compute bit goes on a VM on a laptop with no GPIOs and the sensors go on a real esp32.

Having GPIOs be an addressable resource would be so cool. Like if nothing else, I could start a new esp32 project without wiring up a breadboard. Most of my stuff is some combination of the same 10 chips anyways.
