Hello and thank you for your time.

Has anyone been able to get esp-now to work on the esp32 or esp8266

Thanks Tony

Do you mean in relation the espruino JavaScript interpreter or the esp8266 and esp32 in general? If the latter, try the espressif forums.

Hi.
Yes I mean in JavaScript.
I for the most part have it working in arduino.

What takes me an hour to code in js takes me a day or more to google and YouTube my way around C.

Cheers.

Can the wifi and ESP-now co-exist?

I'm not aware of anyone porting the library to the esp32 port.

Yes it can.
I have to slaves that listen on esp-now and resend the packet over Wi-Fi.

You have to make sure esp-now is on the same channel as Wi-Fi.

When the masters scan for slaves they need to match the slaves channel.

Works well. I used espurino on a non Wi-Fi led project and its awesome. Wish I could do all my projects on it. But I went to the esp32 soly for esp-now and sensor touch.

Cheers
