Anyone forked this and adapted to WPA2 Enterprise?

I have seen a couple of examples at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bABHeMea-P0 https://github.com/martinius96/ESP32-eduroam for connecting to university networks that have WPA2 Enterprise, but those aren't integrated nicely into something like ESPAsyncWiFiManager.

Thanks for looking at my video, unfortunately there are lots of moving pieces. It will be very difficult to implement one library that will work with all enterprise WiFi networks. One will have to customize the implementation for each network. I’ve hard coded credentials while connecting to my university network, as I had to register MAC address of each ESP32 to me before even attempting to connect to WiFi.

Good to know. I have a product I sell that is currently using the ESP8266 (see www.sports-iot.com). I have had a lot of customers/potential customers ask about being able to hook it up to a work network or school network (probably not sanctioned by their IT department) that is some form of WPA2 Enterprise. I am not super well verse in all the authentication methods, so this request was more me assuming it would be more simple than it really is. I guess this means that it would be a lot harder than simply letting them put in their credential and key through some web text boxes and it would hook up.
