## Product Description

M5MonsterC5-CardputerADV is a compact ESP32‑C5 add‑on board for the M5Stack Cardputer AVD and Tab5, built around JanOS and designed for fast USB-based setup and use with Android, PC, or Mac.

### Why did you make it?

To give Cardputer users a powerful, ready-to-flash platform for experimenting, prototyping, and building connected projects without the usual setup friction.

### What makes it special?

It leverages the ESP32‑C5’s modern wireless stack—dual‑band Wi‑Fi 6 (2.4/5 GHz), Bluetooth LE 5, and 802.15.4 (Thread/Zigbee)—plus a clean two‑part software setup (JanOS on the Monster board and a dedicated Cardputer app flasher), making it fast to deploy and easy to expand.
