Learn how to set up your first ESP IDF project using Visual Studio Code, from scratch. We will build a simple example using GPIOs to learn the basics of IDF and how to navigate through the code and documentation.
We will also learn how to use the menuconfig, a very helpful tool to configure the main settings for our project.
