When might the stepper example for the a4988 driver be re-released? Or is it permanently withdrawn?

There are references to it last year but these give a 404 and "This page does not exist yet." respectively.

Are there any other stepper examples?

Thanks

Seems that code got removed from the v2.0 release of that library. You can always switch to the release/v1.1 branch to see what's there: link. Note that there probably is a reason the devs removed it, and you may need to massage the code a bit to work in current esp-idf versions.

Thanks.

From the top of https://github.com/espressif/esp-iot-so ... 4438c87d25 is the statement

" revert(motor/stepper): temporarily remove stepper, you can refer release/1.0 for test"

which suggested that a release was due soon.

However, running

git clone --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-iot-solution

4988 or stepper is absent and the only item under "motor" is servo.

Who in Espressif should I ask to ascertain the planned release date or confirmation of permanent withdrawal?
