I have not built this up as yet.? You need to ask Oliver which board that he used.? If you look at the Pix that Oliver attached and count the pins it is a 38 pin ESP32 Development board [I think Wroom but cannot decipher the last few characters on the part].? The link that Oliver provided at Amazon was for a 30 pin board.? Oliver's board has a jack for a Wi-Fi antenna , but that is not used in the test stand.
I am going to make a schematic shortly, so I can identify the exact pins that are used and be sure that the extra I/O pins on the 38 pin versions are unused.? I will post it here for review unless Oliver has one already available.? I will also try to show how the Expansion Board(s) fit with the Development board(s) when plugged into an Expansion Board.
?
Just as an aside, I am working on a special application of a clock operated switch using the ESP32 as a real time clock attached to my WiFi network for NPT time reference.?

Hi John,
Yes the website is down and the CLI app isn't working. A file seems missing.
I found this :
The GUI is identical to web application and works perfectly

Re: IDE Version 2.3.5 and updated 66-9 (Menu Error and Frequency Calibration Fixes)
I've been compiling with the following settings: Dual Serial 528 MHz Faster with LTO
I get the following memory usage:
Memory Usage on Teensy 4.1:? FLASH: code:312132, data:132408, headers:9084 ? free for files:7672840 ? ?RAM1: variables:194720, code:288440, padding:6472 ? free for local variables:34656 ? ?RAM2: variables:483744 ?free for malloc/new:40544
People have reported success with both 528 MHz and 600 MHz. It's probably best to select the slowest clock speed that works to reduce heat dissipation and improve longevity.

I think things are mixed up between the old IDE installs and the new ones. The path used for my install is:
C:\User\jack\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages
Under the packages directory are arduino and teensy. All of the Arduino stuff from the latest download for the IDE in found below the arduino directory. Everything for the Teensy should be below the teensy directory. However, when I look at your compile, I see:
c:\Users\default.glenn\Documents\Arduino\libraries\ArduinoJson\src/ArduinoJson/Document/BasicJsonDocument.hpp:7,
which is not the path that the IDE is going to use to find everything. This looks like the pre-2.0 versions of the IDE. I would uninstall the old versions of the IDE using
Control Panel --> Programs and Features
HIghlight all of the Arduino IDE's and click on Uninstall. To play it safe, I would uninstall the TeensyhDuino, too, using the same Control Panel commands.? I would then reinstall everything.
Yeah, it's a pain in the butt, but I think it's necessary.

When you download the IDE, you are given the opportunity to make a donation to the Arduino people who continue to maintain and improve the IDE. I always make a donation whenever I download a new version. It's not required, but I think we should support them.

If you do not want to use a 30 pin ESP32 [Oliver is using a 38 pin version] here is a link for a 38 pin Expansion board.
?
If you do not want to solder up an IDC cable Adafruit has a "10-pin IDC Socket Rainbow Breakout Cable"
?
Or you can get a "10pin DIY JTAG IDC USB Logic Analyzer IC Test Clips Test Hook Grabber Test Probe" At Ali Express
?
Might be able to construct a test stand from entirely purchased parts.

Re: Stencil with 3D printer
Hi Alan...or anyone who knows how to convert the paste mask from either the Gerbers or KiCAD to a format that can be used to 3D print them.?
The URL above, is not accessible.?
I've been beating my brains out trying so many different methods. So far without success, such as using the KiCad StepUp workbench in FreeCad, and also making an SVG image with Inkscape.?
Does anyone have an idea how to do this? I have attached the front paste svg file.
