HackerBox #0084 - Rework

Explore PCB rework tools and techniques. Configure development tools for the ESP8266 D1 Mini 2.4GHz Wi-Fi Module. Assemble a minimal embedded test platform using the ESP8266 D1 Mini module, OLED display, input buttons, and an output RGB LED. Leverage the minimal embedded test platform to implement a graphical game, packet capture tool, and other network security experiments.  Apply a logic probe to debug digital circuits and test jumper wire connections while making wire mods. Perform a bodge wire modification to repair an RGB LED circuit. Extend the number of MCU output pins by making PCB cuts and jumps to add a digital SIPO shift register configured to drive multiple LEDs. Deadbug mod a PISO shift register to extend the number of MCU input pins and support a sixteen button keypad. Assemble an SMD soldering practice kit to improve surface mount soldering skills.
