Getting Started

Development Setup

1. Follow modified instructions from https://docs.m5stack.com/#/en/quick_start/m5core/m5stack_core_get_started_Arduino_Windows, the reference instructions are for M5Stack Core, we are working on M5Stick, there is a difference. Ignoring this difference will cause your M5Stick to become unresponsive.
2. Install Arduino IDE - Download Windows Installer instead of the ZIP file for non-admin install
3. Install M5Stick Library from our repo instead of that provided by m5stack.
   • This is also how you would update the library whenever there are breaking changes.
   • Windows:
     • Copy the 'M5StickC-master' folder into your 'Documents\Arduino\libraries\' folder
   • OSX:
     • [a little similar to Windows, let me know if someone tried it out]
4. Skip the factory and Hello World test.
5. Checkout our git repo for code: https://github.com/bettr-xyz/tracestick-firmware. Current code is in /alpha.
6. Copy the BLE library from our repo and replace yours:
   • https://github.com/bettr-xyz/arduino-esp32/tree/master/libraries/BLE/src
   • Typically under: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\esp32\hardware\esp32\1.0.4\libraries\BLE\src
   • Contains some BLE stability fixes
7. 
   
8. Install the ArduinoJson library
