I was finally able to get my Tangarine working! Even though I run Ubuntu and am comfortable coding in python, I had a lot of trouble getting this to work. This is an outline of what worked for me:
-clone the main codeberg repository to my user/home folder
-follow guide on main for building/flashing the firmware: https://codeberg.org/cool-tech-zone/tang...UILDING.md
-after running idf.py readd the esp-idf to system variables
-test that I'm able to flash the firmware from main
-checkout the branch for the lua inputs pull request: https://codeberg.org/bloop/tangara-fw/sr...ut-drivers
-git pull the commits from this branch
-check out main
-git merge main
-install tangarine faceplate
-follow procedure to flash tangara's firmware (might have to readd the esp-idf system variable)
-add input.lua to the root of your sd card
It took way too long but it worked in the end. The process of modifying the input.lua and adding it to the sd card is seamless. So, if the pull request gets merged to main, this will be a TON easier.
