Hello and thank you for your time.

Has anyone been able to get esp-now to work on the esp32 or esp8266

Thanks Tony

Do you mean in relation the espruino JavaScript interpreter or the esp8266 and esp32 in general? If the latter, try the espressif forums.

Hi.
Yes I mean in JavaScript.
I for the most part have it working in arduino.

What takes me an hour to code in js takes me a day or more to google and YouTube my way around C.

Cheers.

Can the wifi and ESP-now co-exist?

I'm not aware of anyone porting the library to the esp32 port.

Yes it can.
I have to slaves that listen on esp-now and resend the packet over Wi-Fi.

You have to make sure esp-now is on the same channel as Wi-Fi.

When the masters scan for slaves they need to match the slaves channel.

Works well. I used espurino on a non Wi-Fi led project and its awesome. Wish I could do all my projects on it. But I went to the esp32 soly for esp-now and sensor touch.

Cheers

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
