Honestly, I think small teams will feel the impact of browser-based ESP32 simulation before big companies do.

I think running ESP32 firmware in a browser matters more for regular people than it gets credit for. Could be wrong though.

Tried to explain running ESP32 firmware in a browser to my dad. Failed miserably.

I work with this stuff, and running ESP32 firmware in a browser isn't as simple as it sounds. The downsides deserve a mention too.
