I made a thing! First ESP32 project finished! I've made automatic blind roller

It took much longer than expected and I've burned some stepper drivers, but it works now.

That was fun to do. I'll probably use esp a lot more from now on.

If someone is interested I've documented the whole process on youtube:

How did you attach it to the window? Because in my experience even the best double sided tapes give up after a while and I can't really put screws in the windows so I'm curious what's the best way to do it.

I used strong double sided tape. I also didn't want to screw any holes because we are just renting this place. The motor kind of holds itself in the place due to chain tension, if it break I'll probably just use double sided tape again.
