Needed to install Git from this link to make it work for me. Nothing was happening when I would click "Clone Git Project" in PlatformIO. This fixed my problem. Thanks for the awesome video!

This was exactly the scope and type of explanation I was looking for. Thank you!

After a ton of searching around for videos and explanations that almost hit the mark..this was what finally broke through to my brain. Thank you! Simple, concise, and exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks for the awesome tutorial. For newbies like me, please also install GIT on your computer in order for this work.

Thanks for this video. I'm new to the whole world of ESP32/PlatformIO/VSCode/GIT.... So this whole video really helped me with the work (playing) that I'm doing. 👍

Perfect video for my needs, thank you very much

If an ESP32 dev board needs a button held down to start the upload, this might be fixed by putting a 2.2μF electrolytic between EN & GND pins. Worked for 2 different clone boards -- now upload starts immediately with no buttons needing to be pressed.

The only thing I can see that’s “missing” is the serial plotter but honestly I’ve never used it and there’s probably a plug in for that

@chandlerbennett4287 7 місяців тому

Can you include multiple projects into one git repo? For example I have ESP board 1, ESP board 2, arduino board 1 all with different code but all interact with each other. Can you combine that all in one git repo with platformio? Or is there another way of doing projects for each one?

I was hoping to find a video that shows how to take someone else's github project and bring it into PlatformIO on VS Code. I don't want to have write permissions their code, just bring the code into a new project on my machine and make it read / write on my machine. Any help with that?

Why is getting the blue bar with the checkmark at the bottom of VS code such a mystery to get? I have the PlatformIO downloaded but I can never compile. I had the blue bar once long ago but I dont remember how to get it back. I'm certain I cannot be the only one with this problem

@DailyCakeSlice 10 місяців тому

Hmm, strange, I've never run into that before. StackOverflow suggests going to the top menu bar and checking that View > Appearance > Status Bar is checked.

@jacobjohnson3527 10 місяців тому

@@DailyCakeSlice Yes, I have tried that. Thanks for the response btw. I actually figured it out. From what I can understand, there is opening a project using the 'file' tab in the top left corner which opens the file in the sidebar with the rest of the other projects you might have open. That never gave me the option to compile though. What gave me the option to compile was opening a project through a fresh workspace page (opening through the actual workspace area itself because it gives you that option too). I did clean out every open project, restarted vs code, and reinstalled all the compiler extensions before doing that so it could be that too. I'm very new!

Nice tutorial but one step is missing which is described in this video here: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/pZ19qZ6ceqF11oE.html

@TreeLuvBurdpu 7 місяців тому

You didn't compare your commits before committing them, which is a standard part of committing to Git. I was hoping you'd show that, because PlatformIO completely hijacks the Git compare in VS code and just shows you the PlatformIO GUI with no difference highlights, and I was looking for a way around that problem.
