## Blueprint

**Not yet known.** KODE DIY has not published Kode Dot hardware design files yet; their GitHub org only holds a generic KiCad project template and firmware/board-support repos.

### Source repositories

- [kodediy/KodeDot_Meshtastic](https://github.com/kodediy/KodeDot_Meshtastic) — firmware, ★6

### Key parts

| Part | Role | Datasheet |
|---|---|---|
| ESP32-P4 | Application MCU | https://www.espressif.com/sites/default/files/documentation/esp32-p4_datasheet_en.pdf |
| ESP32-C5 | Wireless co-processor (Wi-Fi/BLE/Zigbee) | https://www.espressif.com/sites/default/files/documentation/esp32-c5_datasheet_en.pdf |

_Notes:_ Checked kode.diy/product/kode-dot (no hardware links) and every repo under the kodediy GitHub org: 'Miscellaneous' contains only an empty generic 'kode_KiCad_Template' scaffold (not actual Kode Dot files); 'docs' is an unfilled Mintlify starter template; KodeDot_Meshtastic holds only PlatformIO board/variant definitions (pins_arduino.h etc.), listed here for reference only though it is firmware-adjacent. No product-specific schematic/PCB/BOM found; product is still preorder.
