Hubitat really needs to talk Zigbee to the ESP32

[csteele]

I never tried Zigbee, but I did get Thread working on a -C6:

Zigbee touchscreen $32

I decided to abandon the ESP32-P4&-C6 board regarding Thread. They work fine with Matter-over-Wifi and that's where I'm leaving until I get a greater sense of success. The -C6 comes from the factory with WiFi, not with Thread. Flashing the -C6 is a one-time shot. If the .bin isn't perfect, it's not exactly bricked, but it is a soldering effort to recover. Flashing the -C6 is via the -P4 and the SDIO that is configured between them. The image sent to the -C6 has to retain that in order for the -C…

It's just a template really.. of a "Dimmer" because I got the new C8-Pro T hub. It works with a built-in Generic Matter Dimmer driver. I'm surprised it doesn't work with Zigbee. (Matter is on all my hubs, Thread on only one hub. Zigbee is on just one hub too.)

Note: I only use ESP-IDF for these projects.
