how to use serial monitor with ESP32

[what2use]

How can I send data to the serial monitor, such as text messages for troubleshooting, with the ESP32 ?
When I tried this the Arduino IDE gave me an error that SoftwareSerial.h was not found.

I can use this library with the Uno or Nano but not the ESP32

Any help is greatly appreciated

Serial.begin(115200)
delay(2000)
Serial.println("Setup startede....");

That worked. Thanks
