I am trying to run arduino-cli or rasberry pi 4 64 Bit and get errors as the host os is not supported.

Heltec official library dose not support arm64. So we need to first install the Espressif official ESP32 library then add the example code and driver manually.

  1. Perquisite:
    • Install Arduino IDE
    • Install pyserial 
      pip install pyserial
    • Add current user to group dialout and tty, need reboot/re-login after the usermod command. 
      sudo usermod -a -G <group> <username>
  2. Install the espressif ESP32 core library
    • Open Arduino IDE, and click File->Peferences.
    • Copy the following URL to Additional Boards Manager URLs 
      https://espressif.github.io/arduino-esp32/package_esp32_index.json
    • Click Tools -> Board -> Boards Manager..., and search ESP32 in the new pop-up dialog, then select the esp32 by Espressif Systems and click install
  3. Install the Heltec WiFi LoRa 32 (V3) library
    • Open Arduino IDE, then Select Sketch->Include Library->Manage Libraries... Search Heltec ESP32 and install it.
  4. The examples will be located in File -> Examples -> Heltec WiFi LoRa 32 (v3)
  5. Enjoy
