I noticed that there are dozens of Adafruit libraries available on the Libraries tab on Particle Web IDE interface. Unfortunately, one of the Adafruit libraries I need is not listed. It is called “Adafruit AHTx0 Library”.

Here is a link to how it can be accessed for an Arduino: [Arduino | Adafruit AHT20 Temperature & Humidity Sensor | Adafruit Learning System](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-aht20/arduino#installation-3064513)

The library is required for the Adafruit AM2315C and AHT20 temperature sensors, so I am sure others would like to access it as well. How can the Adafruit AHTx0 Library be added to the available libraries in Particle?

The recommended solution is to use Particle Workbench and follow the instructions for [using a 3rd-party library not in the community libraries](https://docs.particle.io/getting-started/device-os/firmware-libraries/#using-a-3rd-party-library-not-in-the-community-libraries). Most Adafruit and Sparkfun libraries can be used with no changes required.

Alternatively, you could follow the instructions on the same page for contributing a port of the library which would make it available in the Web IDE.
