    Necto is now free for non-commercial usage. You can use over a 1000 click boards with ready-to-use libraries.

    Problem is the Sparkfun. There is no board package for the STM32 MicroMod for Arduino IDE. Please, fix this.

    Thank you

    This looks like an very interesting board and the guide looks very well done. However, I wished I had read this before purchasing the MicroMod mikroBUS Carrier Board since I was not prepared to spend around $500 US to use a $20 board. From what I can gather, the MIKROE Necto Studio requires a $299 license to use it. Also, to run this on Linux or MAC OS, the MIKROE CODEGRIP for STM32 is required since the mikrProg is only supported on Windows.

    I have a number of Mikroe boards and was looking forward to use this board with something like the ES32 MicroMod, but I suppose I'll have to shelve that idea for now.

      Hi there, thank you for purchasing a MicroMod mikroBUS™ carrier board. Here are some options that may assist you:

      • MikroElektronika does offer a free 30-day trial license for Necto Studio; you just need to create a new user account. You can also use a different programmer to upload the compiled *.hex file.
        • Unfortunately, there isn't an ESP32 compiler available for Necto Studio. Only the STM32 MicroMod processor board is supported in Necto Studio with a compiler.
        • In my experience the 30-day trial was not 30 days from the activation, but it seemed to track the number of days that the software was actually used/open.
      • In order to support all the available Click boards, you could port the mikroSDK to be used in the Arduino IDE or Espressif SDK.
      • Otherwise, you can still use the Arduino IDE with the ESP32 processor board. However, support for any Click boards would be limited to compatible Arduino libraries.
