$ pio lib update

try on your machine

The command "pio lib update" is used in the context of PlatformIO, which is an open-source ecosystem for Internet of Things (IoT) development. This command allows you to update the libraries used in your project.

Libraries in PlatformIO provide pre-written code that can be reused for specific functionalities or hardware components. These libraries may be updated by their developers to fix bugs, add new features, or improve compatibility with the latest hardware or software.

When you run the "pio lib update" command, PlatformIO will connect to its library registry and check whether there are any updates available for the libraries used in your project. If there are updates, it will download and install the latest versions of these libraries, ensuring that you have the most up-to-date code for your project.

This command is commonly used to keep your project's libraries synchronized with the latest developments in the library ecosystem, ensuring better stability, compatibility, and access to new functionalities.
