Research notes

Verified via `gh api` tree of M5Shark/M5Shark (LICENSE is MIT, copyright 'Just Call Me Koko' = the ESP32Marauder author, confirming this is a Marauder-derived firmware fork) and README hardware table. Only hardware/ file in the repo is a single .rar of case STLs; no schematic, PCB source, or BOM found anywhere in the tree.

What still needs checking
  • An EVA case appears in specifications but not the explicit package list. Confirm batch contents, microSD inclusion and cable inclusion.
  • The store omits RAM/flash. The firmware target lists 8 MB and PSRAM without PSRAM capacity; confirm the purchased board’s revision before flashing.
  • The SHARK README says GPL-3.0 while its LICENSE file contains MIT text. A single licensing claim is therefore unresolved.
  • The store’s generic Marauder claim does not identify the shipped image or establish SHARK support for every production revision.
