Is there a bluetooth component to allow connection to the codex device form programming devices that have limited ports or no usb port?

Great question! At the moment CodeX connects to CodeSpace over USB via the Web Serial API — there isn’t a Bluetooth path for programming the device.

For programming devices with limited or no USB ports, a couple of workarounds that usually help:

- A **USB-C hub or adapter** on devices that lack a full-size USB port. Any inexpensive adapter with a USB-A port typically works, since CodeX just enumerates as a standard USB serial device.
- Make sure the cable is a **data-capable USB cable** — a lot of USB-C cables that ship with phones are charge-only, which is a common gotcha.
- The browser also matters — Web Serial requires **Chrome or Edge** (Chromium-based). Safari and Firefox won’t see the device.

CodeX does have an onboard **radio module** (ESP32), but that’s for device-to-device communication between CodeX units in student projects, not for connecting to a computer for programming.

If Bluetooth programming is something you’d really like to see as a feature, definitely worth flagging to the team.
