The Web programmer page. Might be good for brand nubians

Yes, it should.
I suppose I could update it to actually show the error messages, but I don’t actually have enough processing power on my server for lots of people sitting around using trial-and-error to make it work. Not showing the error message discourages using it that way.

The V3 configuration generator has a lot of improvements, making it better at generate configurations, and it may also make the web programmer more useful.

I think if it would just work smoothly, you could sell it as a simple, quick way to upload, and leave the errors for Arduino. If someone could load it themself from the browser, all they would need is help cleaning up their configs, which is easily done online without screen sharing or anything (as opposed to walking someone through Arduino/Zadig). Then they could move on to troubleshooting configs when they gained confidence. I know it would have made it far simpler for me when I was learning.

Can the V3 configurator be used for a V2 board

24

Nope.
You could use it as an example, but that’s about it.

FWIW I just successfully pasted in a custom test config file and it worked fine.

Cool. Did you have to boot/reset?

27

nope.
First connect pairing was with Proffieboard.
Second connect when prompted again, this time STM32BOOTLOADER.
Compiled and uploaded.

28

Nice. I’ll give it a go when I get home. Stupid work schedule…
