Hi – I have your “Build Webservers w/ESP32 and ESP8266 2nd edition. Very helpful.
I am trying to move my project from the sync web server to your recommended async for the esp8266. But when i try and install the library for
ESPAsyncTCP and the ESPAsyncWebServer, PlatformIO says there are a few libraries with that name. so when i explicitly add
me-no-dev/ESPAsyncTCP@^1.2.2
me-no-dev/ESP Async WebServer@^1.2.3
to the lib_deps in the platformio.ini file, when it tries to compile, it complains that there is
SemanticVersionError: Invalid simple block ‘1.2.3\tESP Async Webserver’
what is the correct string to put in lib_deps? thx

Sara – thx for responding. I solved the problem by adding the libraries via the searching for them, choosing the “me-no-dev” versions and installing them. not via just adding them to lib_deps in platformio.ini file. -yurij
