<div class="textblock"><p><a class="anchor" id="md_index"></a>This is a C++ BLE library for the ESP32 that uses the NimBLE host stack instead of bluedroid. <br />
The aim is to maintain, as much as reasonable, the original bluedroid C++ &amp; Arduino BLE API by while adding new features <br />
and making improvements in performance, resource use, and stability. <br />
</p>
<p><b>Testing shows a nearly 50% reduction in flash use and approx. 100kB less ram consumed vs the original!</b> <br />
<em>Your results may vary</em> <br />
<br />
</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="what-is-nimble"></a>
What is NimBLE?</h1>
<p>NimBLE is a completely open source Bluetooth Low Energy stack produced by <a href="https://github.com/apache/mynewt-nimble">Apache</a>. <br />
It is more suited to resource constrained devices than bluedroid and has now been ported to the ESP32 by Espressif. <br />
<br />

ESP-IDF Installation</h1>
<h2><a class="anchor" id="v40"></a>
v4.0+</h2>
<p>Download as .zip and extract or clone into the components folder in your esp-idf project.</p>
<p>Run menuconfig, go to <code>Component config-&gt;Bluetooth</code> enable Bluetooth and in <code>Bluetooth host</code> NimBLE. <br />
Configure settings in <code>NimBLE Options</code>. <br />
<code>#include "NimBLEDevice.h"</code> in main.cpp. <br />
Call <code><a class="el" href="class_nim_b_l_e_device.html#a2e8bb71daabbffd9eab8787493a45ce7" title="Initialize the BLE environment.">NimBLEDevice::init</a></code> in <code>app_main</code>. <br />
<br />
</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="using"></a>
Using</h1>
<p>This library is intended to be compatible with the original ESP32 BLE functions and types with minor changes. <br />
</p>
<p>If you have not used the original Bluedroid library please refer to the <a class="el" href="md__new__user__guide.html">New user guide</a>.</p>
<p>If you are familiar with the original library, see: <a class="el" href="md__migration__guide.html">The migration guide</a> for details. <br />
</p>
<p>For more advanced usage see <a class="el" href="md__usage__tips.html">Usage tips</a> for more performance and optimization. <br />
