espOTAUpdater

A simple cross platform app to load firmware wirelessly to ESP32's, specifically for the wordclock:

Used this library for the esp-ota functionality: https://github.com/bitfocus/esp-ota

Was able to use p5.js within the Electron app thanks to this template: https://github.com/garciadelcastillo/p5js-electron-templates

To use with the wordclock:

  • From google chrome, launch configurator and connect to board: //add configurator website
  • Fill in WiFi settings and Connect - be sure to see the connection was successful and write down the IP address
  • Click the Init OTA button

The wordclock is now ready for an OTA update, so launch the espOTAUpdater app

  • First select the new BIN file. Latest release can be found here: //add bin file link
  • Type in the IP address for the board as noted above
  • Click Start and wait for a Done message!
