This is what they look like if not wrapped up in plastic foil.

KBut yeah ... wrapped up in plastic foil, the Beetle Boards look suspicious 
ANow they look well organised and well manufactured
KThanks @aymen ammari
KTalk to Brandon if you want one
KHe's doing the distribution in the DevHeads community for us
AYeah I want
K
AOk ok
KGreat
KSoftware to program this board is of course Embeetle IDE
ACan you send the link to download it
K
AAnd introduce it to our new members
KAs for the Beetle Board itself, please refer to this link:

AMany friends have joined since the announcement
KGreat. Community is growing
AYeah sure
DDo you have any example code implement event-driven programming in esp32-s3 or another platform for refences purposes ?
TSo you ordered these micros from china to put them into individually wrapped foils and take them back into china lol
KHahaha
KYeah
KYou could say that 
KThese Beetle Boards made quite a trip
TYou have to send a selfie here with you and the downloaded embeetle ide
KSoon some of them will go with you to US
Twill those be in foils too?

MThanks I have fixed the issue
MMy configuration was wrong lol, typo error
MCheck out this pdf , you will get to learn much about this @https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://espressif-docs.readthedocs-hosted.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/api-guides/event-handling.html&ved=2ahUKEwjm38_yw5GFAxXaaEEAHXyDDYsQFnoECBAQAQ&usg=AOvVaw3s6n_Xio8elm-bN_c5C6EO
CMorning everyone! I have a small question I want to operate 2 strips like this one with an Arduino Mega, the LEDs look a bit dim when I turn them on, like a drop in power! Should I power them with another 5 volts or should I add resistors? If resistors, how many ohms? Thank u in advance.
PPlease let me announce the new KiCAD MasterClass series.

WAdding resistors won't help, they'd just make the LEDs dimmer. a relay can be used to control power to the LED strips, maybe you need a additional power supply The issue might also lie with the LED strips themselves...

AIf you're powering them with arduino's 5v it won't be enough ypu could use boost converter like this to power the leds and use arduino pins only for control the relai board but don't forget the common GND
A
WI think this is an extra step as she already have a relay...
AI meant to power leds 
NVM
NVMAFixed,
CYeah thank you. Actually I considered using Separate power supplies with common ground , but I preferred to ask here first.
YI'm using Digital Ocean droplet and I have installed my own MQTT Broker but AWS is the best
YPlease plan a video for us to tell us more about the board when you have time, thnaks in advance
Aneed help guys - so yst i had my hackathon in which i presented a electronic based model were i used esp32 as micro controller but asper a judge instead of a protocol which is using wifi i should use poe or powerline protocol and go with more lightweight , power efficent chip rather than esp32 which was very powerful for that task , till now i have justed build my projectsa round esp32 and arduino , So which family of chips i should look into for lightweight and custom application . I want a family in which the code remains the same for all chips but we can choose which chip with how many pins to be used . Can anyone suggest ?
WHi @accur4te , i suggest using MBed it is professional and work with various microcontrollers and use c and c++ as programing language.

Athe developement board costs more than a raspberry pi in my country , and asper my research stm32 also falls under my requirements is it right ?
