hello!
I was having difficulties using my A6, I followed this tutorial and it was phenomenal, I still have difficulties with some concepts in the IoT world.
I'm using the A6 as my study base.
what would be a next step after after KCS?


thanks!! Smile

Greetings everyone!

I would like to know if I can use the Mixly software to program my A6, I saw a video lesson (link below), I found the way of block programming very interesting, I think it is more intuitive for me as a beginner.

can you use this software on the A6? if yes, what configuration should i do.

Thank you all!

sure , no problem, it support ESP32. just do as video is ok. when use relay output, need use PCF8574. Because A4 is use ESP32's GPIO control relay directly.
