Lost, need help, basics: ESP32-S3

Postby klaatu2 » Tue Aug 06, 2024 3:19 am

I'm new to ESP-IDF and I'm lost, I have used other platfroms which are all integrated...but this thing..... :twisted:
I'm sure it will all be simple in the end...
ESP-IDF is installed in Visual Studio Code.
I have the ESP32-S3-LCD-EV-Board connected and operating

To start, I just want to upload this firmware to the board:
https://github.com/espressif/esp-dev-ki ... lvgl_demos

HOW??

I have tried ESP Launchpad. Pressing the connect button does nothing.
Then installed the "esptool", which is suppose to make this easy.....don't see it anywhere after install.
I see a lightning bolt icon at the bottom of the VSC window. But that seems to only work if you build something

The issue was Brave the browser. By default it has WebSerial disabled, which is used by ESPLaunchPad

Put this in Brave as a URL and it will take you to the screen to enable it
It is listed as: Web Serial API
