BlocklyProp Launcher Application
This is a companion app for https://solo.parallax.com
This version is for Chromebooks only! If you are on a Windows or Mac computer, please download the version for your platform here: https://www.parallax.com/downloads/blocklyprop-solo-launcher-and-faq-schools
Supports Parallax Propeller-based products: Propeller Activity Board WX, Badge WX, Propeller FLiP, Scribbler Robot, Hacker Electronic Badge.
Updated (v1.0.1):
* Fixed download failures, often occurring during RAM Checksum step
* Fixed can't-set-port-options reporting bug
* Ports are managed much more naturally; often no user-selection need be made for wired port and newly-connected ports (wired or wireless) appear above previously existing ports of the same type
* Log view now auto-scrolls (can be overridden by user scroll), includes optional verbose logging and saves preference
Updates (v0.11.2):
* Fixed port filtering to exclude Bluetooth ports - this eliminates extra port that would otherwise appear
Updates (v0.11.0):
* Enhanced to treat ports by friendly name in user's visual port list and internally by name and path as needed.
* Added tooltip for status when waiting to connect
* Enhanced/Updated settings feature
* Made settings button appear active when settings panel is visible
* Removed Websocket button from settings pane as it is no longer needed
* Fixed Allow WX feature that was not truly disabling WX support
* Automatically remembers Allow WX setting between sessions
* Fixed subnet mask entry to autosave and refresh list of available WiFi (WX) Modules
* Removed wx not fully supported message; it's fully supported now.
* Disabled taskbar notification to prevent unnecessary user interruption
* Changed Open Browser button to be two buttons to open BlocklyProp Solo and BlocklyProp sites
* Supports Chromebook; see note at top for Windows and Mac support
System Requirements:
* Chromebook
* USB 2.0 or Wi-Fi Access Point
* Parallax Propeller development board
