> That’s very insightful. Thank you. Some more questions since you are the person which shows up for esp32 and nim in the whole wide world :)

You're welcome. lol, no one else did it so there you are.

> Did you try out the esp-idf 4.3 release yet?

No, my work requires stability so I haven't tried any of the new esp-idf releases. Nesper does compile with 4.2 if you pass the flag for it, but it's not well tested. If none of the major API's have changed 4.3 should work.

It would be good to wrap the mqtt aws service. Don't know if I'll have time for it though. But it's really not too hard to wrap using `c2nim` on the header files. PR's welcome! :-)

> Do you have any thoughts on Freertos vs Zephyr whilst using Nim?

I would like to try Zephyr sometime. FreeRTOS is used by AWS and the esp32 so it seemed a good start.
