      Hello,

      I'm trying to add the M5Stack board following info in http://www.m5stack.com/assets/docs/index.html without any success.
      The article states to "Enter http://www.m5stack.com/download/package_m5stack_index.json into Additional Board Manager URLs field", however the json file doesn't seem to be valid.

      I have the Arduino IDE working fine with Adafruit boards so there should be no issue with the IDE itself.

      How can I add the board?

          the explanation here are outdated:
          http://www.m5stack.com/assets/docs/index.html

          dont do this part:
          Start Arduino and open Preferences window.
          Enter http://www.m5stack.com/download/package_m5stack_index.json into Additional Board Manager URLs field. You can add multiple URLs, separating them with commas.

            Hello,

            I have uninstalled the previous setup, deleted all files and redeployed everything using guide at https://github.com/m5stack/M5Stack/blob/master/docs/arduino-ide/windows.md
            This time I can properly see the M5Stack-Core-ESP32 board on the list.

            Thank you for the help.

            Is there any way we can request an update of the http://www.m5stack.com/assets/docs/index.html to avoid confusion in the future?
