[solved] how to add / see a esp32 mesh in the ESPMESH app?

hi all!
For a week I'm trying to get into esp mesh with the esp-MDF together with the espressif idf.
I have installed the esp-mdf and the esp-idf on a windows machine. compiling, flashing, monitoring and opening the menuconfig works like a charm. i understand how the mesh should work in theory.
tested the internal_networking with the examples from esp-idf and it worked.
after that I saw the ESP-MESH app. here is where I learned I needed to use other examples from the esp-mdf, got a little overwhelmed by it.
Search for an example that lets the mesh or root connect to the internet (function_demo > mwifi > router) and a light example (development_kit > light)
connected my phone to that router and started the ESP-MESH app up. aaannnd saw no esp32. a wrong example maybe?
i have not a great clue of what example to use. so what should i use?
