Espressif-IDE vs. Visual Studio Code extension and other options.

I've been using PlatformIO and sometimes Arduino IDE for ESP32 development. I would like to know how Espressif-IDE compares to Visual Studio Code extension and the other two options. Is Espressif-IDE the best supported option for "serious" development, with most comprehensive features and new chips ...

How to use Adafruit libraries with ESP32-IDF on VSCode?

I would like to get a simple blink test running on Adafruit QT Py ESP32-C3 board (https://www.adafruit.com/product/5405) using C/C++ on VSCode and Ubunto 22.04. I installed ESP-IDF VS Code Extension. What is the standard way of using Adafruit or other libraries to control the neopixel on this board?...

Re: Scrambled data from ESP32-CAM-MB

Thank you, this solved my problem. For future readers, my issue was compounded with having two different types of ESP32-CAM boards. They have identical layout and differ only by ESP32-S module, which I just discovered. The modules with Espressif logo work just fine. They don't even need GPIO1 shorte...

MicroPython support for ESP32-CAM

What is the easiest way to get image capture capability with basic camera control on ESP32-CAM board using MicroPython? Preferably, a module I can just "pip install".

Scrambled data from ESP32-CAM-MB

I'm using ESP32-CAM, which works fine with an external CP2102 USB/serial adapter, but gives me problems with two different ESP32-CAM-MB boards using these USB/serial chips: - QinHeng Electronics HL-340 - CH340C I'm testing with a simple blink script: #include <Arduino.h> void setup() { Serial.begin(...

Searching for a wide angle camera module for ESP32-CAM with lens not glued to its holder

There are a lot of wide angle camera modules for ESP32-CAM available, but as far as I know, almost all of them have glue applied to lens thread. I'm looking for a supplier of modules with lens not glued to its holder, so I can easily adjust the focus to extreme closeup, about 2-3". I would appreciat...
