Hi @Zeppelin500,

First of all, a massive thank you for your fantastic MBusino project! It's a brilliant piece of hardware and software, and it served as the absolute perfect foundation for my own setup.

I am reaching out to politely let you know about a major fork I've been working on over the last few weeks: MBusino 5S - v2.0.0.
https://github.com/aut0mat3d/MBusino2_5S/

Because I needed some highly specific features for my home automation—like having each sensor populated as a separate device over MQTT and needing a standalone communication via ESP-NOW—I ended up giving the code a massive overhaul. To be completely honest, my web design skills are quite limited, so I curated and built this with the heavy assistance of AI which i also used for code curating and refining of functions/methods.

I began with small changes trying to keep as much original code as possible, after a few Days i implemented more and more fratures, stumbled over this and that, the code growed,....

Key Changes and Features:
A completely rebuilt, responsive Web-UI.

Migration from EEPROM to LittleFS (including the option to up-/download settings and meter profiles).

ESP-NOW integration for standalone communication.

AP-only mode fallback and Smart Calibration.

An automated CI/CD Pipeline via GitHub Actions.

I absolutely do not want to step on your toes or compete with your original project! I have explicitly stated in my release notes that all credits go to you. My code runs perfectly on your hardware, but due to personal reasons, I am not capable of providing extended support for my fork.

I simply wanted to share my work with you. I would be incredibly honored if you'd like to take a look at it. If you like the new GUI concepts or any of the new methods, please feel absolutely free to port them back into your main project!

Thanks again for your amazing work!

Best regards from Austria,
Rainer
