What's not (TODO-list)

1. clean code

2. list of commands
   • lets send a list of commands to the robot to run
   • needs rethinking the behavior-pattern
3. schematics of assembly
   • add some schematics of assembly to allow others rebuilding it easily
   • add a list of the parts needed to assemble a new robot (e.g. 8x SG90, screws, nuts, loctite 243, nodemcu, ...)
   • add suggestions to improve the assembly (e.g. don't use screws and nuts, but use pivot pins with split pins)
4. smartphone app
   • remove the pre-programmed / static behaviors on the bot
   • program the behaviors to a smartphone app
   • allow controlling the bot via a smartphone app
   • should be kids-friendly to allow education
