Hello guys,
I have just tried Visual Code Studio + PlatformIO with the ESP32-IDF and found out that I could not compile the sample code due to the absence of:
1.) msys32 (it is not included inside the PlatformIO, had to manually download it myself)
2.) The components.mk file. (had to manually add it into the /main folder)
3.) The related automation scripts for "make all", "make menuconfig" and such.
4.) The PlatformIO does not generate the /main folder inside - instead it is the /src, and that is also why it wouldn't compile because 'app_main' isn't found.
I have used this guide from a Japanese blog: http://fanoutsendai-yagiyama.blogspot.m ... -grep.html (use a Google translate) and I managed to get it to compile.
Any way to inform the PlatformIO to fine tune these intergration? I feel that it is almost there, but that small problem could put off engineers and coders to work on the ESP32. A plug and play approach is more beneficial to us and it allows us to focus on the programming problem instead of just messing with the settings.

Hi Brian,
Platform.io has their own community site here: https://community.platformio.org/ - This is probably the best place to start discussions about their environment.
Did you also look at their own official docs? These are located at http://platformio.org/get-started
Windows environment setup on ESP-IDF is fairly involved right now, for regular ESP-IDF as well. We're working on simplifying this in the future.

Hi everybody,
Let me share with all of you an IDE for ESP32 & ESP8266, which is very easy to code your ESP under uPy.
You can download uPyCraft IDE at

Re: PlatformIO support for ESP32-IDF - Requires some improvement
I've been running Platformio with Visual Studio Code for some time. The Platformio documentation was accurate and complete, and I've never had a problem with compiling or uploading. But you do need to follow the instructions, particularly about NOT installing Arduino Core, and selecting Platformio IDE in VSCode not just Platformio. I hope your experience improves. Cheers.
