Hacking the Jarvis standup desk from fully.com for home automation using an ESP8266 arduino interface (by phord)

WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
My standing desk (Fully Jarvis) uses a serial RJ45 connection to connect the standing desk controller box to the remote/handset that I can use to raise/lower the desk (this is a fairly common interface for standing desks). There are already existing Arduino projects out there (see https://github.com/phord/Jarvis, https://github.com/tjhorner/upsy-desky) that have reverse engineered the protocol that the desk uses to raise and lower, so my overall plan is to plug the macropad into a raspberry pi to read the inputs (QMK) and either use them to control the standing desk or route them to my PC/Mac for other macros.
