Decided to keep the Libra 2
Thanks I'm going to try this just now. What does your nickel menu config file look like for this? I had a look in the documentation but couldn't find it. https://github.com/pgaskin/NickelMenu/blob/v0.5.4/res/doc

NickelMenu configuration
I'm trying to get the "Screenshots" option in my reader overflow menu. I've tried the following but they didn't work, based on my reading of the NickelMenu documentation. What am I doing wrong?

NickelMenu Files Appearing in Kobo 'My Books' Library
Download KoboRoot.tgz and copy it to KOBOeReader/.kobo (do not open KoboRoot.tgz - drop it zipped exactly as you downloaded it into the hidden /.kobo/ folder which sits in the root of your Kobo)

Bluetooth or WiFi for apps?
And for Wifi management on ESP32, this awesome repo that "does it all": https://hieromon.github.io/AutoConnect/ -- this repo creates its own access point you can connect to with your phone to pop-up a "captive portal" (like you see at hotels or airports) to enter your own Wifi credentials -- this is only done once -- after that, the ESP32 will connect to the last known good Wifi network. If you don't want that, just use the built-in Wifi functions to create a local Wifi hotspot to connect to. Then creating web pages on the ESP32 is easy -- you can use the "PageBuilder" JSON syntax, or host regular HTML/JS/CSS files on the SPIFF/LittleFS partition and server those in response to incoming requests.

How do I connect an esp8266 to wifi without WPS
Or if you don't want to have a hardcoded ssid and password in your program, you can use the AutoConnect library
- Is there an example in the RTOS SDK that lets you enter the wifi name and pass from another device? (instead of hardcoding?)
-
Need reliable WiFi Connection on esp32
I want the device to be portable, so I want the esp32 to automatically reconnect to Wi-Fi every time I switch it off and back on. I have used this library, and it serves the exact purpose of what I want to do in my project : https://github.com/Hieromon/AutoConnect
- How do I decide on the board and iot platform?

sensor powered by usb or battery
I want to save power on a battery powered sensor but I also want to have AutoConnect set up to set up and configure the wifi. Since having the wi-fi running it can take up a lot of energy I would like to make sure that none of the battery is used during the programming set up. I was thinking that the AutoConnect would only run when it detects that it is plugged into a 5v usb port. I also want a switch so that the usb can power either the sensor (lower power) or the wifi configuration (high power) parts of the program. How would I best accomplish this?

My Diy Wordclock with an Esp32 and WS2812b. It features an Webserver for settings and updates, smooth Dimming, which always calculates the best Brightness, Time over WiFi(Ntp), an dynamic WiFi configuration so you don't need to Hardcode your WiFi credentials and much more.
It is this one right: https://github.com/Hieromon/AutoConnect ?
