Arduino Packages

We’re going to need 4 extra packages for building the kit:

1. ezTime, to get the current time when it turns on
2. MQTT, to send data over the internet
3. ArduinoJson, to format data for our dashboard connection
4. Seeed_Arduino_AHT20, to connect to the temperature board

To locate the Library Manager, click on the third icon on the left side that looks like a stack of books.

In the search box beneath LIBRARY MANAGER, filter the list for each of the packages and click the install button below them:

1. ezTime by Gonggrijp
2. MQTT by Joel Gaehwiler
3. ArduinoJson by Baozhu Zou
4. Seeed_Arduino_AHT20 by Benoit Blanchon

If you clear the search box, click on the Type dropdown and select Installed, you should see the full list:
