6 open source boards using the Joystick
Real designs built with the Joystick, from public GitHub projects: a quick way to see how others power, decouple and connect it. Each board comes with its KiCad files, full parts list and a render — and you can simulate its firmware on HardLabs.

Joystick: common questions
Where can I find a Joystick reference design?
Each of the 6 boards on this page is a real design using the Joystick. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.
What parts are used alongside the Joystick?
The C7950, NUCLEO-L432KC, ZLDO1117G50TA and ZSR330GTA appear in the most repositories here.
Which microcontrollers do boards using the Joystick use?
Most are built on AVR/Arduino (2) and ESP32 (2).
How big is a typical board using the Joystick?
The median is 104.5 × 97 mm, and 67% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the Joystick?
By GitHub stars, Iotuz esp32-hardware by CCHS-Melbourne, with 35 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the Joystick before building it?
Yes. HardLabs turns a board's netlist and BOM into a working simulation, so you can boot and test firmware against it with no hardware on your desk.
