TRMNL's Unbrickable Pledge: Open Source and Sustainability

2025-02-19

TRMNL has made a promise to never brick your device. They've followed through with open-sourcing their firmware, building BYOS clients in Ruby, Elixir, and Python, selling BYOD licenses, releasing the free Framework UI kit, and hiring a senior engineer for OSS. To address growing server costs, they've introduced the 'Unbrickable Pledge,' promising to release the core web application source code in case of insolvency. This commitment ensures user data safety and reduces e-waste.
