About us

About MeshFan

A community resource for MeshCore enthusiasts, created by fans for fans.

MeshFan started from a simple idea: there should be a place where hobbyists can find everything about MeshCore. No technical jargon that only insiders understand, but clear explanations accessible to everyone.

Whether you've just heard about mesh networks or have been experimenting with radio technology for years, MeshFan is here for you. We gather knowledge, share experiences, and help the MeshCore community grow.

What is MeshFan?

MeshFan is an independent information site dedicated to the MeshCore community.

πŸ“‘

Clear information

Guides, explanations, and news about MeshCore in plain language. Content written by real people, not auto-translated.

🌍

Multi-language support

Information available in multiple languages, with region-specific details about frequencies, regulations, and local communities.

🀝

By hobbyists, for hobbyists

Not a commercial website but a community project. We don't make money from this, we just enjoy it.

Why we do this

MeshCore is brilliant, but the information is mostly in English and often quite technical. That can be a barrier for people who are curious but don't know where to start.

MeshFan aims to lower that barrier. By providing good explanations, an overview of available hardware, and a place where you can ask questions to other users.

What we stand for

  • Accessible knowledge

    Everyone should be able to get started with MeshCore, regardless of technical background.

  • Honest information

    No sponsored content or hidden interests. We write about what we actually experience.

  • Open community

    All questions are welcome, even the simple ones. Beginners get just as much attention as experts.

  • Fun in the hobby

    MeshCore is primarily a fun hobby for us. That's the energy we want to share.
