[Bug]: esp32-neopixel-listener - installation - Preferences.h missing

[rgm607]

What happened?

When installation the esp32-neopixel-listener over arduino IDE and do the instructions as described, the compiler will result in an error, because the #include <Preferences.h> is missing (no such file or directory)

Where should we get that one

pre-build version wouldn't help me, because we are using APA102 leds, so we would need to adopt the code, but first we would like to compile the code without any problems

Have you gone into the library manager and installed preferences?

[rgm607]

It wasn't mentioned, but i also can't find something like that in the libary manager!

[JTF4]

My mistake. The preferences file should be included with the Arduino IDE.

You may need to try reinstalling the Arduino software and see if that gets the file back. Worst case, you can grab it from GitHub and drop it in the libraries file for Arduino, but I would try reinstalling first.

@rgm607 have you made any progress with this?
