Yay!

That 680u cap might be slight overkill for ESP. On the other hand, ESP is said to have very spiky power consumption, so I'll want some chunky cap there.

The prettiness of the KiCAD 3D-view makes me want to model all the parts, just for making pretty pictures. Probably won't be doing that, but it would be nice.

The reset switch placement is not ideal, but I feel like it is pretty much the only available space for it. It might be feasible to swap it with flash toggle switch, have to think about it.

Whole layout is still bit of a mess, I just threw the components in, so yeah, very much WIP.
