The DeskBuddy is a face that sits next to your laptop. Two tall, rounded white eyes and a small mouth on a black screen, in a shell about 47 × 27 × 21 mm. It blinks and glances around on its own. Tap it and it cycles through five expressions. Tilt it and the eyes drift with the onboard IMU. Spin it quickly and it looks surprised.
Swipe sideways and the face gives way to the useful pages: a seven-segment clock, the date, current weather, the moon phase, a stock quote and your GitHub followers and repo count. Leave it alone and it flips to the next page every 8 seconds.
The whole thing is one board and one battery. There is no wiring to get wrong, so the work is in the firmware and the shell, and the firmware has enough going on (touch gestures, IMU, Wi-Fi fetches, an animated face) to feel like a real little device.
You need a Waveshare ESP32-C6-Touch-LCD-1.47 (1.47in 172 × 320 IPS LCD, capacitive touch, USB-C, battery connector, onboard QMI8658 IMU) and a 3.7 V single-cell LiPo with a plug for the board's battery connector (the guide lists a 400 mAh cell; 300–500 mAh fits). The weather, stock and GitHub pages use Open-Meteo, Stooq and the GitHub API, with no keys needed.
Step 1: Print the shellThe shell is a single file, tinyespdeskbuddy.stl (attached below), 46.7 × 26.8 × 21.4 mm. It slices cleanly in OrcaSlicer 2.4.2 (Bambu P1S, 0.4 mm nozzle, 0.20 mm Standard profile, PLA, auto-orient, no supports) at about 12 minutes. The mesh is made of many separate shells, so open it in your slicer before you print. PLA or PETG both work. Ours is blue.
Schematik serves the firmware as one sketch. At the top, fill in WIFI_SSID, WIFI_PASSWORD and GITHUB_USER. Leave them blank and it still runs: the network pages just show NO WIFI CONFIG or SETUP REQUIRED. As written, the weather page shows New York in Fahrenheit and the stock page shows AAPL; the URLs and page titles are plain strings in the sketch if you want to change them. Don't publish the sketch with your real credentials in it.
Step 3: Flash itPlug the board in over USB-C and click Deploy in the Schematik Deploy panel. If you build it yourself, use the libraries the guide lists (GFX Library for Arduino, ArduinoJson, FastIMU) and turn on CDC on Boot, or Serial Monitor stays empty even though the firmware runs. If the upload stalls, hold BOOT, press Reset, and try again.
On boot the screen says HOLD STILL while it calibrates the IMU, then the face appears. Serial Monitor at 115200 baud prints the current page and mood every 1.2 seconds. If the IMU isn't detected, the eyes fall back to a smooth sine-wave drift and everything else still works.
Step 4: Check the pagesTap to change mood, swipe left to go forward through Time, Date, Weather, Moon, Stock and GitHub, swipe right to go back. One thing to know: the clock doesn't sync over the network. It starts from the moment the firmware was built and counts up from there.
Step 5: Fit the battery and close it upPlug the LiPo into the board's battery socket and tuck the cell into the shell, then press the board into the open front, screen facing out, with the USB-C port reachable for charging and reflashing. Don't pinch or puncture the cell; if it's swollen or hot, replace it.
- LCD SCK / MOSI: GPIO 1 / 2
- LCD CS / DC / RST: GPIO 14 / 15 / 22
- LCD backlight: GPIO 23
- Touch SDA / SCL: GPIO 18 / 19
- Touch RST / INT: GPIO 20 / 21
Each expression is a set of eye sizes and a mouth shape, so adding a mood is one more case in the cycle. The network pages all follow the same fetch-then-draw pattern, so a new card (a sensor reading, a server status ping, a countdown) is one fetch function and one draw function.
