    for what its worth, i’d like to mention that the script talking to the arduino (flashed with standard firmata) is only about 70 lines longs including all very generous amounts of comments blank lines. it almost looks like pseudocode at this point https://github.com/mithi/hexapod-irl/blob/dev/src/TEST_J52.js
