I just discovered this repo: Mitsubishi AC remote.

I have a reversible Mitsubishi AC.

Cloned the report, ufbt-launched it, and hey presto! I now have a second AC remote to fight my wife over the temperature in the living room with 🙂

Thanks Anton!

    Not sure I have enough experience to make my own apps, I’m familiar with a compiling on linux (though last few packages I tried to compile just refuse, idk why), but unless you mean "cd into the folder and type ‘sudo make && make install’ I’m at a loss. I know a bit of bash scripting but basically the extent of my knowledge is for loops.

      Making apps for the Flipper is phenomenally simple. You don’t even need to make a Makefile: it’s all in the application.fam manifest. The API is very well documented here and there’s plethora of sample applications and tutorials out there - for instance, this one which is pretty good and got me started.

      What you do need however is a somewhat solid knowledge of the C language. Not C++, not C#: plain old C. But you know what? I reckon getting started with your first Flipper app would be a great way to learn C. It’s easy, it’s forgiving and it’s very quick to test changes and debug what you’re doing using the CLI log.

      Give it a shot: it’s honestly a great and rewarding little platform to develop on.

        Hell I might, thanks for the inspiration! I know literally nothing about C lol but I’ll at least look into these tutorials and give it a shot. Hopefully I can at least learn enough to momentum-ize some app made for the ofw or unleashed or something if need be.
