EasySkyMesh: Third-Party Power-Optimized MeshCore Fork

Important clarification: EasySkyMesh is a third-party derivative project based on MeshCore firmware, maintained by IoTThinks at 
github.com/IoTThinks/EasySkyMesh. It is not an official MeshCore firmware variant and is not available through the official MeshCore flasher at 
flasher.meshcore.io.
What EasySkyMesh Is
EasySkyMesh is a community-developed fork of MeshCore that adds:
 
Power optimization features for battery-constrained deployments
 
Additional sensor integrations not yet in mainline MeshCore
 
Experimental features the maintainer intends to contribute upstream to the official MeshCore project
Should You Use It?
For most users: no. Use official MeshCore firmware from 
flasher.meshcore.io for reliability, active support, and compatibility with the broader MeshCore community network.
EasySkyMesh may be worth evaluating if you:
 
Have a specific sensor integration need not yet in mainline MeshCore
 
Are comfortable tracking a community fork that may lag behind official releases
 
Want to contribute to or test pre-upstream features
Official Firmware Alternative
For power optimization with official firmware, use the 
powersaving CLI command available in MeshCore repeater firmware (Repeater Only): 
powersaving on. This enables the official sleep/wake cycle without needing a third-party firmware. (Confirm the exact firmware version that introduced this option against the release notes before relying on a specific version number.)
