My FTDI based USB-Serial Converter has been out of stock for months... finding genuine FT230X parts right now is nearly impossible! Refreshing an octopart tab every day, finally scored some from alliedelec - Now we're back in stock! tindie.com/products/13817/

First draft working! Completely standalone UPDI programmer from an SD Card! My code here: github.com/krdarrah/UPDI_… and you'll see a link to my fork of the Adafruit_AVRProg lib

wow, just had chatGPT solve a bug for me - had an old Processing Sketch that was failing to compile in v4, was importing both serial and io libs and was getting a "Serial is ambiguous error" threw that into ChatGPT - and instantly told me what to do! Pretty crazy!
