+# DeskControl
+This project is for motorizing a (very specific) manually controlled standing desk. I wanted to call it AutoDesk, but I don't like getting sued :-)
+
+Contained in this repository are the hardware designs and software source code. I doubt it's useful to anyone but me, but it may contain some interesting bits of code.
+
+All contents are released under the [Unlicense](https://unlicense.org/). Help yourself!
+
+## Building and uploading
+This project uses [PlatformIO](https://platformio.org/). For reference, here are some of the common commands:
+
+
+
+_Building_
+```pio run```
+
+_Building and uploading_
+```pio run -t upload```
+
+_Installing the libraries (without building)_
+```pio lib install```
