ESP32 - Crashed Arduino IDE after trying to install library

 Also ard app hidden?  got to find & delete

Got it working again after several ReInstalls

  • Open a terminal and run: find -iname "ardu*"
  • This will show you all files and directories with "ardu" in the name

The recommended method for installing the ESP32 library on Arduino IDE is as follows:

## Step 1: Install Arduino IDE

Ensure you have the latest version of Arduino IDE installed on your computer. You can download it from the official Arduino website[1].

## Step 2: Add ESP32 Board URL

1. Open Arduino IDE
2. Go to File > Preferences
3. In the "Additional Board Manager URLs" field, enter:
   https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/gh-pages/package_esp32_index.json
4. Click "OK" to save the preferences[1][3]

## Step 3: Install ESP32 Board

1. Go to Tools > Board > Boards Manager
2. Search for "ESP32"
3. Find "ESP32 by Espressif Systems" and click the "Install" button
4. Wait for the installation to complete[1][3][5]

## Step 4: Select ESP32 Board

After installation:

1. Go to Tools > Board
2. Select your specific ESP32 board model (e.g., "DOIT ESP32 DEVKIT V1")[1][5]

## Step 5: Test the Installation

1. Connect your ESP32 board to your computer
2. Select the correct port under Tools > Port
3. Open an example sketch: File > Examples > WiFi (ESP32) > WiFiScan
4. Click the "Upload" button to compile and upload the sketch to your ESP32[5]

**Note:** If you encounter any issues during installation, try running the "get.exe" file in the ESP32 tools folder as an administrator, or consult the ESP32 Troubleshooting Guide[5].

By following these steps, you should successfully install the ESP32 library on your Arduino IDE and be ready to start programming your ESP32 board.

SunTracker - working

2/11 got everything mounted Sketch written 021125_suntracker_copy_20250211151900 seems to be working except LRR reasd zero 2/12 added 10k resistors to each let Connect one leg of each LDR to the 5V pin on the Arduino. Connect the other leg of each LDR to an analog pin on the Arduino: Top-left LDR to A0 Top-right LDR to A1 Bottom-left LDR to A2 Bottom-right LDR to A3 Connect a 10kΩ resistor from each analog pin to the ground (GND) pin on the Ardui getting good readings from LDRs Need add battery for servos Added batt but readings erratic
