Usage

Important: make sure you properly setup the I2C pins especially for ESP32 before creating the I2cDevice, make sure you install the nanoFramework.Hardware.ESP32 nuget:

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// when connecting to an ESP32 device, need to configure the I2C GPIOs
// used for the bus
Configuration.SetPinFunction(21, DeviceFunction.I2C1_DATA);
Configuration.SetPinFunction(22, DeviceFunction.I2C1_CLOCK);

For other devices like STM32, please make sure you're using the preset pins for the I2C bus you want to use.

    // WeatherHelper supports more calculations, such as saturated vapor pressure, actual vapor pressure and absolute humidity.
    Debug.WriteLine($"Heat index: {WeatherHelper.CalculateHeatIndex(tempValue, humValue).DegreesCelsius:0.#}\u00B0C");
    Debug.WriteLine($"Dew point: {WeatherHelper.CalculateDewPoint(tempValue, humValue).DegreesCelsius:0.#}\u00B0C");

    return I2cDevice.Create(settings);
