Howdy list ,
A colleague started development of our application with esp-idf and the command line. I'm able to get it to build and flash from there. I've now got the esp-idf extension installed and working within VSCode. I can open example code, flash, debug, etc, and it's great.
How can I get an existing project working within this framework? I'm having trouble understanding what needs to go where before I can build / flash the existing project. the one relevant tutorial I found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IuZ-E8Tmhg
has him 1: using windows specific preferences (I'm on OSX) and 2: still pretty much just using the CLI. I wasn't able to get my project up and running with these instructions.
Can anyone point me to any resources or give me any pointers here? I'm a little bit clueless!

Re: Opening an existing project in Virtual Studio Code
You should be able to work with any project with the ESP-IDF vscode extension if the folder structure follow this structure:
Technically the extension activates when you run any of our commands, or if the workspace folder contains a project_description.json, sdkconfig or CMakeLists.txt file.
Code: Select all
- myProject/
- CMakeLists.txt
- sdkconfig
- components/ - component1/ - CMakeLists.txt
- Kconfig
- src1.c
- component2/ - CMakeLists.txt
- Kconfig
- src1.c
- include/ - component2.h
- main/ - CMakeLists.txt
- src1.c
- src2.c
