Adding a new I2C sensor to WipperSnapper requires scaffolding a driver, registering the I2C device, creating a component JSON definition, verifying the build, and submitting pull requests to both the firmware and components repositories.

Creating a WipperSnapper driver involves writing the driver code, defining the component in the Wippersnapper_Components repository, adding library dependencies, and running automated validation steps like clang-format checks before creating pull requests.

Yes, registering an I2C sensor requires a multi-repo workflow where you submit pull requests to both the Adafruit IO WipperSnapper v1 firmware repository and the Wippersnapper_Components definition repository.

WipperSnapper uses PostRun automation to enforce clang-format code formatting and documentation blocks, while also guiding build verification steps to ensure new sensor drivers compile correctly before pull request submission.

Yes, the workflow applies to any process that adds a new I2C sensor, creates a WipperSnapper driver, registers an I2C device, or contributes a component definition to the WipperSnapper ecosystem.

Contributing a component definition requires creating a component JSON file, ensuring library dependencies are listed, passing automated formatting and build verification checks, and submitting a pull request to the Wippersnapper_Components repository.
