Description
Project Aura is an open‑source, ESP32‑based air quality monitoring station for everyday home use. It combines industrial‑grade sensors, a 4.3" IPS touch display, and full local Home Assistant integration via MQTT — no cloud dependencies, no soldering required.
Backers get access to the complete build ecosystem: 3D‑printable enclosure files, step‑by‑step assembly guide, and ready‑to‑use firmware with a one‑click web installer.

📧 Assembly Instructions:
You should have received an email with a link to the assembly instructions ZIP file. As a backup, I've also uploaded it to the model files — click "Download STL/CAD Files" and you'll find the instructions archive there!
💬 Questions? Use the Community Q&A Hub!
If you have any questions about assembly, setup, troubleshooting, or anything else, please post them here:

Why post there instead of DMs?
Because when you ask publicly, other backers with the same question get the answer immediately! It helps everyone and builds our community knowledge base.
I'll be monitoring that thread closely and responding to everything. 📢
