Customer:
I purchased a Croduino NOVA32 board and want to know if it works standalone or requires another board. In the Arduino IDE (Tools > Board), there is no ESP32 Dev Module option. Can you help?

Soldered Support:
The Croduino NOVA32 is a microcontroller board that works standalone. It contains an ESP32 microcontroller and a USB-UART IC that enables communication between your computer and the ESP32.
To program the Croduino NOVA32, you need to add the board definition to Arduino IDE. Follow the tutorial at Nauči – Soldered Electronics. For step 2, use this URL instead of the one in the tutorial: https://github.com/e-radionicacom/Croduino-Board-Definitions-for-Arduino-IDE/raw/master/package_Croduino_Boards_index.json. In step 4, search for NOVA32 instead of aesp8266 to install the board definition for this board.
If you encounter an error during installation saying Arduino IDE couldn’t download a file, close Arduino IDE and try the installation again, as this sometimes happens.

Croduino NOVA32 je mikrokontrolerska pločica koja radi samostalno, odnosno na njoj se osim ESP32 mikrokontrolera nalazi i USB-UART IC koji omogućuje komunikaciju između računala i ESP32 mikrokontrolera.
Kako bi ste mogli programirati Croduino NOVA32 potrebno je da dodate board definition u Arduino IDE. Za dodavanje pločice u Arduino IDE imamo koristan tutorial (Nauči – Soldered Electronics). U drugom koraku umjesto navedenog linka u tutorialu koristite https://github.com/e-radionicacom/Croduino-Board-Definitions-for-Arduino-IDE/raw/master/package_Croduino_Boards_index.json Također u 4. koraku umjesto aesp8266 pretražujete NOVA32 kako bi instalirali board definition za navedenu pločicu.
Ako vam nešto nije jasno ili ne uspijete dodati board definition za Croduino NOVA32 slobodno nas kontaktirajte kako bismo vam pomogli. Ako prilikom instalacije dobijete grešku da Arduino IDE nije mogao skinuti neku datoteku samo ga zatvorite i pokušajte ponovno s instalacijom jer se to nekada zna dogoditi.
