Error adding the Heltec libraries to Arduino Software

[wprojects]

I recently purchased the ESP32 from Heltec, but am having an issue adding the heltec library to my arduino software.

I tried adding this link in preferences https://github.com/fantasticdonkey/uLoRa, and it is not showing up when I go to manage libraries. So next I went manually and added the git clone, I now see the examples under incompatible devices category. The issue when I try to upload is that it says the board is written for esp32 and is incompatible. This is obvious, because it is not set for the esp32 board. The problem is I do not have an option to select the heltec esp32 as my board so I can compile and upload. What can I do from here to get it working?

As described here: https://heltec-automation-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/esp32/quick_start.html#via-arduino-board-manager Add this link to additional_urls: "https://github.com/Heltec-Aaron-Lee/WiFi_Kit_series/releases/download/0.0.5/package_heltec_esp32_index.json" Then your board should appear in the board manager.
