Installation

What binary should I use?

Debug Builds

Debug builds are providing additional diagnostic outputs when connected to a serial monitor by USB.
You can find a few generic debug builds here: https://github.com/srg74/WLED-wemos-shield/tree/master/resources/Firmware/%40Aircoookie/Latest/Debug_builds

How to get a stack dump (crash log with backtrace)

You might be asked for a crash report (backtrace showing the function that crashed) using a debug build.
This is only possible when self-compiling in the VSCode+platformio development environment.

In a nutshell, this is what you should do:

• Find the build environment you want, like env:esp32dev_audioreactive,
• add -DWLED_DEBUG to build_flags, then click File -> Save All
• You need to connect your board via USB. OTA is not possible in this case.
• build and upload from the VSCode IDE (don't upload using other flashing tools).
  
• watch the output in the PlatformIO Serial Monitor panel; this should help to better understand what is the problem.
