Cool project

I normally find that not only do I need to catch keyboard interrupt and deint but I need to catch all errors to deint while debugging my programs. Because if your debugging a program and it crashes and ends then you fix the program and re-run it, all the previous thread, PWM, SPI and anything else c...

You know there are these little modules that you can just serial write to and the the other end can just serial read from and at juts over a $1 each pretty cheap https://www.ebay.com/itm/5V-IR-Infrared-Remote-Decoder-Encoding-Transmitter-Receiver-Wireless-Module/381593359339?epid=883063019&hash=item...

@laboris you are a machine :) Since you are already planning writing a blue tooth library and you already have SD working in both 1 pin and 4 pins modes and TFT working super fast maybe you could look at adding a MP3 blue tooth sound module or MP4 sound/TFT to the blue tooth library your writing. Bl...

Yes more expensive. The Wrover is quite new so I think in time it may come down a little in time but if you shop around you will find it is about an extra $5 to get the extra 4mb of psRAM and for me to remove the restrictions on operating RAM it was worth it.

The ESP32 comes prebuilt in a couple of different modules mainly hte Wroom and Wrover modules. The Wroom has the extended 4mb flash for storage space but only ther standard 512kb of operating RAM but the Wrover modules come with 4mb of extended flash and another 4mb of extended operating RAM too see...

@pythoncoder Yes. I played around with lots of instructions and never managed to get ESP32 firmware to compile on windows machine and ended up getting old laptop and installing linux just to be able to compile ESP32 Micropython firmware. Laboris new added instructions for windows build seem to be th...

For ESP32 boards this is the only instructions that seem to work for ESP32 firmware and flashing it using windows compouter istead of Linux computer

@laboris Question on your timer. Are they the same timers used for PWM i.e if I am already using timer 0 to timer 2 for PWM generation and I want to make a call back timer I must use timer 3 ??? I am using timer 0 for 20mhz clock signal for the counter chip, I am using timer 1 and timer 2 for PWM sp...

@laboris

Thanks. I will play with it more. My windows PC seems to be doing lots of low perforce problems since the updates for the spretre and meltdown patches so many it is at my PC end not the ESP32.
