Do you have any opinion on the ESP32 and how "production ready" it is?

What would be an example of makers-grade hardware vs a production-quality system?

An ESP32 has enough CPU juice like an Amiga 500 or PCW 1512 (minus graphics), with network capabilities, so personally I think it is well suited for lots of tasks, given how we used them back in the day.
