4. Reproduce the issue:
5. Save board logs as a separate text file 6. Attach the file to email with issue name and description of the issue
If an issue is in your code and it is not reproducible with the Sketch Template please send us a bare-minimum sketch. It allows you to reproduce the issue and does not contain unnecessary logic because we will not be able to review all your lines of code.
If your issue is with: 1. UI / UX: we will need a screenshot with the issue
2. Communication with a server: we will need your application logs 3. Sending data between board-server-application: we will need your application logs / Serial Monitor Output / bare-minimum sketch 4. If a screenshot will not display the issue because it is not static or it is difficult to describe it with the text - we will need a video.
