Æthernet for Arduino and ESP32

This library connects ESP32-based Arduino projects to Æthernet for secure real-time messaging, self-provisioning, and recovery on unstable networks.

Documentation · Tutorials · Examples

Supported environment

• ESP32 boards;
• Arduino IDE;
• Wi-Fi connectivity.

Install from a ZIP file

1. Download this repository using Code → Download ZIP.
2. In Arduino IDE, choose Sketch → Include Library → Add .ZIP Library.
3. Open File → Examples → Aether and select an example.
4. Select your ESP32 board.
5. Add your Wi-Fi SSID and password where the example indicates.
6. Select a partition scheme with enough application space, such as Minimal SPIFFS, when required by your board configuration.
7. Build, upload, and open the serial monitor.

The screenshots in doc/pics show the same sequence in Arduino IDE.

What the examples demonstrate

The included examples show device registration, connection to Æthernet, and message exchange. For multi-platform examples involving C++, Java, or TypeScript peers, use aethernet-examples.

Current limitations

• The library currently declares support for the esp32 architecture.
• Installation is currently ZIP-based; the project is not yet documented as an Arduino Library Manager package.
• The compiled size depends on enabled logging, registration components, board core, and build configuration.

Issues

When reporting a problem, include the ESP32 board, Arduino core version, Arduino IDE version, partition scheme, and relevant serial output.
