SerialDebugApp

Freeware desktop App, companion for SerialDebug Library.

SerialDebugApp is a freeware desktop app, companion for SerialDebug library for Arduino.

Note: the open source SerialDebugApp library is not depending on this software.

Why this app is an freeware and not open source ?

This app is based in my another commercial projects, through the serial port, control devices with the Arduino.

If dont want use this freeware, just use default serial monitor of Arduino IDE.

About

SerialDebugApp is a serial monitor desktop app, made for SerialDebug library

This have some improvements:

• Show debug messages with different colors, depending on each level.

• Have buttons to most of commands of SerialDebug

• Have themes, light and dark themes.

• Have a auto-disconnection feature. If you leave app, e.g Cmd-Tab/Alt-Tab to switch to Arduino IDE, the app will disconnect from serial port, to allow a new upload.

• And more, e.g. filter, converter, etc.

Note: Professional debug/logging have levels and it is show with colors, to differentiate messages.

An example of this, is the ESP-IDF logging for ESP32 boards.

With SerialDebugApp now we have it for Arduino.
