Perfect tutorial! Thanks a lot.
The only thing I’ve modified in the code is instead of “LED” I used “LED_BUILTIN” because It did not blink otherwise.

Great tutorial! It was really helpful!

I have Ubuntu and python 3.10.12, and there was just one more step to get platformIO going, for anyone getting an interpreter error

sudo apt install python3-venv

Found it on

Hi Sara

Arduino Platform – also when the target is an ESP32 D1 Live Wroom

Hi.
When creating the project, the framework should be arduino.
You selected a different one.
Regards,
Sara

Followed the installation guide – but when I create a project

[env:d1_wroom_02]
platform = espressif8266
board = d1_wroom_02
framework = esp8266-nonos-sdk
monitor_speed = 115200

no src/main.cpp is auto injected
when I create one

#include

#define LED 2

void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
Serial.begin(115200);
pinMode(LED, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
digitalWrite(LED, HIGH);
Serial.println(“LED is on”);
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(LED, LOW);
Serial.println(“LED is off”);
delay(1000);
}

it cannot find

Is there some prerequisites not mentioned ?

You can use the same code you use in Arduino IDE on VS Code.
