Espressif Thread Border Router - missing WEB GUI option

Hi,

I'm playing with Espressif Thread Border Router example (ot_br + ot_rcp) and I've tried to add WEB_GUI for testing purposes.
It looks that compilation option (CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_BR_START_SERVER) related to WEB_GUI and mentioned on following page: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... b-gui.html
is not available in framework ESP-IDF v5.1. Could you please help me and guide how to make it working?

For testing purposes I'm using following HW setup - ESP32-H2-MINI-1 with ESP32-S3-WROOM-1U.

Thanks in advance.

Had the issue as you, you have to modify the sdkconfig enabling the Joiner and Comissioner options under the Component Config - OpenThread menu. Hope this fixes your issue!!!

It doesn't change anything...
But it looks that GUI is supported only for Espressif Thread Border Router that utilize Border Router board, not two boards with socs connected with wires - https://github.com/espressif/esp-thread-br/issues/20.
