Bluetooth samples

These samples are using nanoFramework.Device.Bluetooth to work with the nimble BLE implementation on the ESP32 device. For more information about the library you can check nanoFrameworkDevice.Bluetooth Library repository and the API documentation.

Hardware requirements

Currently only support on ESP32 devices running either the ESP32_BLE_REV0, ESP32_PICO or ESP32_BLE_REV3 firmware. On other firmware versions a not supported exception will be returned.

Samples

Build the sample

  1. Start Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 (VS 2017 or VS 2022 should be OK too) and select File > Open > Project/Solution.
  2. Starting in the folder where you unzipped the samples/cloned the repository, go to the subfolder for this specific sample. Double-click the Visual Studio Solution (.sln) file.
  3. Press Ctrl+Shift+B, or select Build > Build Solution.

Run the sample

The next steps depend on whether you just want to deploy the sample or you want to both deploy and run it.

Deploying the sample

  • Select Build > Deploy Solution.

Deploying and running the sample

  • To debug the sample and then run it, press F5 or select Debug > Start Debugging.
