Arduino Control Center development

 It's been awhile since last update of Arduino Control Center. Latest version 7.0.7 includes some firmware bug fixes(see downloads page), and software update to support latest firmware. Plans for the future is to include support for other ESP32 boards - S2,S3, C3, C6, H2,... Arduino Uno R4 Minima and WiFi version, with priority on ESP32 boards. Major change from 7.0.7 version is that Linux Ubuntu version of Arduino Control Center is no longer supported due the lack of interest for Linux version. It is available support for registered users with appropriate license (PRO with lifetime support) but no upgrades for software and firmware.  Stay tuned!

Why Arduino Control Center support only NANO,UNO and MEGA compatible boards?

By default, ACC support only Arduino UNO, NANO, and MEGA compatible boards, including all boards which are based on ATmega 328P and ATmega2560 chips - Arduino Duemilanove, Arduino Pro, Arduino Pro mini, etc... 26.10.2021 - Major update. Software now supports and devices based on ESP8266 chip with built-in WiFi support and emulated EEPROM like NodeMCU, Wemos. Starting from v6.0.0, ACC support both ESP8266 and ESP32 chips with integrated Wi-Fi. Both chips are have emulated EEPROM which is suitable for use with Arduino Control Center. ATmega328P ATmega328P ATmega2560 Why? There are a lot more powerful boards like Arduino Yun, Zero, Due on market, with much more powerful processors and available SRAM. The first reason, less important, is that Arduino Control Center does not require such powerful boards by design. Since Arduino boards are not expensive(original Italian Arduino boards are 3-4 times expensive than most Chinese clones), ACC is designed like this ...
