created a fork of pwngotchi to use in my device
i mainly done only little optimization and stability changes while i am in forums they said kali-linux dependencies cause it to break it a lot and also upated the go version and installed a tool called aircrack
these changes are specifically useful for zero 2w

created the front panel for the case
designed the front panel based on the display we used and ensure that it would fit perfectly and used plastic clips instead of m3 screws because it is way simpler and easy to implement
