Yes. but not majorly.
Unless it can have a good understanding of a whole GitHub project (esphome) I don't see it being to helpful.

Which is the file to update/upgrade?

I didn't update the GitHub yet, gotta finish up polishing the buttons and wait for esphome to release a new update with my changes. Should be within the month.

I should also probably do some testing but that's another story.

1. How hard would it be to make this more user-friendly?
2. Is it possible to make an offline version of this and have a 10 year Jewish Calendar installed on the device?
3. Would you consider selling preconfigured devices at Judaica Stores?
4. If yes, can I partner?

I spoke to him, he didn't seem too interested.

Ha
Was thinking about this, that once I setup one, I'll see how it goes & if it's good I'll ask @Yo ssi about selling preconfigured devices (thought about Amazon/eBay, didn't think of the local stores)

1. I'm using open source software, so no real changes there
2. Definitely, the calculations on there should be able to last forever. There is no commercial smart plug with a RTC on it so that will have to be custom made. (RTC is a real time clock that keeps track of the time)
3/4 I don't think that many people would be interested in a single purpose plug. But I thought about it too.

In short the greatest part of it is the open source software and the customization it allows.

1) can't make a nice UI?
3/4) I do think it's a good item (maybe not enough for store to sell them, but online definitely

It's a decent UI, the idea is not to have to interact with it much

@talmid chuchem have you seen the UI?

My dishwasher turn on exactly at the zman.
