time for some hot girl shit*

ok apparently hot girl shit also includes designing an ESP32 devboard to be nicely JLC smt-able, all while drinking
ok well also this project doesn't make sense at all, even at 30 pieces just the esp32wrover+usb serial are as expensive as https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001621990623.html
which is already really space optimized, as a general devboard module. pcb + usb-c connector + other parts + shipping on top that for what, black soldermask and some custom squigglies perhaps?
hm or i do the typical fox thing minimizing pcb size *even more* and doing smd pads on the back
doesn't this look great? sucks castellated holes are so damn expensive tbh (like, €33.12 surcharge for castellation, €13.76 surcharge for ENIG gold plating) and then add component cost, and panelizing will be difficult too because of the castellation...
oh right, fuck, they don't even do SMT on black soldermask + ENIG
so,,, yeah,, no way I'll get it produced as pretty as this :(
will probably have to scrap both ENIG and the castellated holes (the outer, half-cut ones)
might end up doing blue soldermask (with silver surface finish, and no castellation)
