https://github.com/DualTachyon/uv-k5-firmware .. a cool achievement !
Use this firmware at your own risk (entirely). There is absolutely no guarantee that it will work in any way shape or form on your radio(s), it may even brick your radio(s), in which case, you'd need to buy another radio.
Anyway, have fun.
Use this firmware/code ENTIRELY at your own risk. This firmware is totally experimental, and at

## Building from browser
To build the firmware without installing any software you can run a full featured IDE and compiler in your browser using GitHub Codespace.
The environment is build using the Archlinux Dockerfile provided in the project.
You just need to clic on the green button `<> Code` -> `Codespace` -> `Create Codespace on ...`
After the Codespace is initialized, you can open and edit any file and build the firmware typing `make` in the terminal panel.
