📰 I built a $5 ESP32-powered Wi-Fi scanner and honeypot in just a few hours
The ESP32 is an incredibly versatile chip that comes in all kinds of forms and devices. From smart "Now Playing"-style displays to security systems, it can do a whole lot. For those with a supported display, you can even turn it into a Flipper Zero-competitor of sorts thanks to Marauder. However, I decided to build my own Wi-Fi scanner and honeypot using a regular ESP32-S3 and a Python server on my computer.
