Hi at all....
I would like to know if there is a "better" enviroment then arduino to use with esp32.

What is "better" for me: simple and supported (i need to use BLE)

I need to use the BluetoothLE and compute some encryption functions thats require "plenty" of stack memory (arround 400k)

'Better' is a bit hard to define... what is the Arduino environment lacking, in your opinion?

I'm not able to understand the underline system and control the various stack option.

I have a problem with the size of stack, i would like to increase the size of stack for a particular task (As i written in another discussion). Then i look for the reply to my question in others forum like this.

"Better" form e is also a matter of how many documentation, support and examples there are for a particular enviroment

You could go for ESP-IDF. The Arduino environment is built on top of that.

Many thanks for the explanation

Then how is the stack of the architectrure?

Code: Select all

Application
^^^^^^^^^^
Arduino
^^^^^^^^^^
freeRTOS
^^^^^^^^^^
Espressif IDF
^^^^^^^^^^
ESP32
Is the stack correct. I want just clarify to myself how it works the acrchitecture.

Many thanks

I would switch place with FreeRTOS & IDF
