Thanks, man! That was really helpful. For those, who have trouble with Libraries(IDE doesn't see them), change "C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngine": "default" to "C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngine": "Tag Parser" in your project directory file "settings.json". It solved the problem in my case
Very very good video. I like your style, speed is just right, clarity, and detail. I subscribed after only watching this video…..I normally will not litter my subscriptions with junk so I will subscribe after say 10 videos. Your video was content rich and NOT a waste of time.
Great video! Question about the debugger, how would we apply it for this? I tried following the document for how to apply debug on ESP-IDF using VS Code but I keep failing :( I wanted to be able to use breakpoints and line by line debug
I too want to use VS Code (instead of the EspressIF IDF), but when I install/configure the extension.. it keeps looking for the IDF before installing the IDF! I've seen others with this issue workaound it by installing the EspressIf platform from inside the PlatformIO extension. But that seems kinda strange to me. So, instead, I just installed IDF/Tools directly (esp-idf-tools-setup-online-2.20).. and compiling via the command prompt works fine (idf_py build), yet VS Code IDF extension still does not see it! Any plans on how to setup VS-Code to work with a ESP-prog to debug/flash and step thru code (JTAG)?
1:48 my computer did something different and it looks different and took longer than yours did. 3:08 If you try to create a folder (the default folder name C:\expressif is wrong) without permission, you get something like "C:\Espressif\tools\idf-python\3.11.2\python.exe -m pip" is not valid. (ERROR_INVALID_PIP)"... Guess how I know. When I created the project from "hello World", I got a bunch of questions, but you didn't. Do I want to configure project Hello World? Do I want to install the recommended "Dev containers extension?" And then do I want to use the Dev container file, (that requires me to restart, and THEN where will I be?) So I clicked things until I could see the file list, and my main.c says it has "2 problems in this file" and yours... doesn't. Straight out of the box. 7:00 your "CONFIG_IDF_TARGET," doesn't have a wiggly red line under it. Nor does "portTICK_PERIOD_MS" Do I want to install the Docker extension? Never heard of it, but it's asking me, while it's doing the build. Aaaaand, compile fails. identifier "CONFIG_IDF_TARGET" is undefined and identifier "CONFIG_FREERTOS_HZ" is undefined. It did seem to flash my ESP correctly, but actually working? No, it can't do that. IT says "failed the flash, see terminal" and the terminal shows that it flashed fine and then reset. Really, this talk would be great if you were interactive in front of a class, but on video? It all works perfectly for you, all the time. No recovery for when it doesn't.
That's true, same with me. I'm spending second day trying to fix problems, searching forums etc. Edit: "Something went wrong while trying to build the project" which is just based on buit-in example... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@BratPitany luck? I have been scratching my head trying to get an example to compile. cant parse the compile_commands file....the system is not even making the .bat file it needs. I've reinstalled countless times. nothing seems to work.
@@mtraven23 Nope, I'm short of time recently. I tried my work laptop which I use for industrial programming and effects were the same. So for now I decided to use Arduino IDE to focus on programming instead of wasting my time on programs conflicts.
@@BratPityah, its a nightmare, init it? Why they cant make an extension that works is beyond me. Just an fyi, since your good with an arduino framework, you could use PlatformIO in vscode. It actually installs properly! Really well integrated for loads of different boards(thousands) and integrated library database, easy install. I've been using it for about a year now for my regular arduino projects. I really recommend it, even more so after my terrible experience with the IDF extension.
Can't build because the path it made uses backslash instead of '\\' or '/' so the '\' is removed and the source file not found. Executing task: cmake -G Ninja -DPYTHON_DEPS_CHECKED=1 -DESP_PLATFORM=1 -B z:\Projects\hello_world\build -S z:\Projects\hello_world CMake Error: The source directory "Z:Projectshello_world" does not exist.
Thank you for this very helpful tutorial. There is an issue encountered with both the hello_world and blink sample apps ... they compile, flash, run fine, but it seems Intellisense is missing some configuration and is indicating "problems" related to wrong sdkconfig.h (?) being used (CONFIG_FREERTOS_HZ etc.). Adding "${workspaceFolder}/build/config" to .vscode c_cpp_properties.json seems to fix the issue, though not sure why as "${workspaceFolder}/**" is already included.
Thank you for you great video! It got me far further along. Do you have any suggestions of resources to help guide in decisions about the available settings? The number of options is staggering. The little information bubbles help, but doesn't really guide in how things might be optimized for different projects.
No, I had a death in the family, and it's taken more time than I expected to get back to creating videos. I plan on getting back to work soon. Thanks for asking!

miss you, Tarnoff... I'm sorry to hear about the family crisis. I hope things work out and that you are doing alright. 💙 I'm praying for y'all.
This is the only thing that worked, you explained everything, step by step, thank you!

In order to get VS intellisense, need to install the "C/C++ Extension Pack" from VSCode Extensions menu.
thank you
"breaking bad" always turns into good...thanx a lot for this tutorial
Oh man! Many thanks. This is the only explanation that get works build Esp32 in Windows VSCode!
Great channel mate, you have a really great way of explaining things!
Great video. Love your clarity and presentation. Thanks
Great Sir! I hope more video you will make.
I love you.
I want to say the same
Finally someone explained the embedded side for esp32❤

This great! Since I’m new to these stuff.
awesome
Useful steps well-explained!
Thank you
Great and easy!
Excellent video... thank you.
How do you get your screen showing with your image behind it?
What about Debug ? Breakpoints etc..?
Great video! Question about the debugger, how would we apply it for this? I tried following the document for how to apply debug on ESP-IDF using VS Code but I keep failing :( I wanted to be able to use breakpoints and line by line debug
would be awesome if you could teach us how to use the amazon common software with the esp32, i've found very little information on it
continue eps idf series
Hi Im not able to configure cmake file, It shows an error with include path. is there a way i can solve it?
Wow.. Teaching style is really good. And the display, how do you do that? Can you share how you made the background transparent?
there is a transparent window in front of him so he can write it and he has a black backround smart right!
he has a projector lol

@@mtraven23 Thx for recommendation. PlatformIO was another option I considered but I haven't tested it yet.
Hello Sir! The compilation ESP32 helpful but can we have the other video explanation with the ethernet and esp32 communication also.... with KSZ8061
identifier "CONFIG_IDF_TARGET" is undefined this is the error, I m facing, plese help
same probleme
Hi there, were you at least able to build the project despite this error?
Can't build because the path it made uses backslash instead of '\\' or '/' so the '\' is removed and the source file not found.

and for me too, thanks.

good job. I got error of idf.py not recognized. how to fix? Thanks.
Seems like he stopped making videos
Nope, we just had a really bad family crisis that has taken a while to get through. I plan to get back to making videos this summer. Thanks!
Is this channel dead :c
No, I had a death in the family, and it's taken more time than I expected to get back to creating videos. I plan on getting back to work soon. Thanks for asking!
@@Intermation my condolences. Thanks for all that you do!
