Thanks, bro! You saved me a lot of time.

could it be made to work with uno_r4_minima ? or do you know any software-only alternatives for this board?

Well, I HAVE still been using the arduino IDE, but I got only a minute through your overview, and said, I need this! Great, short tell-it-all.

You're like the Embedded Doke, with the same joke style and accent 😂

You should give the Arduino IDE a new look. It's now a full fledged development environment with a dark mode, syntax highlighting. More of the tools are easier to use and it's much faster than the old version. IDF is now fully supported.

anyway, this is f** amazing, thx bro👍

you remind me of one of the hackers from the film skyscraper on netflix

"Don´t be scared if you see this. Run.." (6:12)

Superb ❤

thanks a lot♥♥

Thank you very much for this. This has inspired me to switch to platformIO in studio code … thanks bud.

Rarely 1% people using platform io.... this is not user friendly.... Who want to learn arduino programming.. ARDUINO IDE IS UNIQUE CHOICE

thanks man

For anyone having issues: I was able to upload to my Arduino Nano through the Arduino IDE, but PlatformIO wasn't able to upload to it. It kept failing with an avrdude error in the Debug Console. All you have to do is go to the platformio.ini configuration file and change board = uno

To the point and delivered with dry humor and sarcasm. What more could a person want? Great job!

@jse-shack825 Some people sometimes don't like taking a straightforward path to reach a destination; they prefer convoluted and confusing routes. For instance, if they need to go north, they will first head west, then turn south, then east, and finally north. If you are such a person, PlatformIO is best for you. Otherwise, you can continue to use the Arduino IDE.

Excellent video overall! Thank you. The "Test" icon is not specifically for TDD (Test Driven Development) which is a software development "philosophy" of writing unit tests before you write any actual code. The Tests button is just a shortcut to the area where you create/store unit tests... which should never be confused with TDD. One is a philosophy, the other is simply unit tests. You can write unit tests all day long without adopting TDD. It's fine... you skipped over all the testing areas because you don't know anything about it and that's perfectly fine... no one "young" ever wants to write tests. Also, git is not an "archiving" system. It is a distributed version control system. Before everyone accuses me of just being a dick... which is exactly how I know the above will be received, know that I mean it in a constructive way. The only reason I mention it is because I know you will do well in both software and UKposts and will end up with many followers. Those YT followers will listen to everything you say and take it for fact without question... and possibly learn some things that may not be 100% correct. Were you wrong per se... eh, not really. What I'm saying, or asking rather, is that as an influencer you make sure to use the correct terminology... or at least as close as possible so people don't have to unlearn the stuff later. Like I said at the top, excellent video! And yes, the Arduino IDE blows and VSCode is a much better solution. Subscribed.

First of all, never code in arduino terms, only use anscci C, because in time critical applications you will have a large issue, Second, you will never have accesses to registers view, whitch is fundemental for debugging professional, so dont use this method, bye an Atmel Ice, get rid of the arduione bootloader, and code in Ansci C, the only way to do this right

nice

Get a shave by washing your face

This looks great. but I haven't been able to make it work. It compiles well. Uloads well and the it says .pioinit:13: Error in sourced command file: COM9: No such file or directory. Can you help me? Thank you

would this work with expressif nano esp32?

I compared platforms for now 6 months. For a hobbyist platformio doesn't make any sense. it's overloaded, complicated and of course 90% of features are useless for 99% of cases. extremely overfeatured. I uninstalled it today. wasted storage space. to be honest, I did never understand for whom this software is meant. I don't think that there are more than 100 productive instances in the whole world.

That's very helpful, thank you. Presumably if you have a devkit like ESP32-C3 Super Mini that already wires the usb pins through to the socket then no hardware hacking at all is needed.

Bro pls help me out with the ESP32C3 Lyra V2, im Lost!!! this one has the esp32c3wroom2 but GPIO 18 and 19 (D+ and D-) has no Jumper pins to connect them to the USB. There is a USB to AURT Port I have tried to make It work as USB to JTAG but its not working either🥹.

plattformio is totally overloaded. if you click somewhere, something new is constantly being started. i hate it

Turbo pascal is joinning the chat..

Microsoft and Visual Studio Sucks

0:15 💅style grace usability ✨☝️🤌 *uses turbo c*

Terrific video, thank you! Wondering where you got that wide breadboard? Standard breadboard does not fit ESP32 well! Thanks.

Amazing. Can I do c# too, or is that too much to ask?

THX for this very nice and clear step by step explanation! Perhaps now I can finally get the debugger to work.

What about variable values?

I have tried PlattformIO a couple of times, but for me it is a big chaos and far away from being user friendly.

Ahem... I use vi...

Hi, a breakpoint is usually used to read out the content of some variables, to understand where a mismatch in our coding is coming from. Can we monitor the value of variables with this "debugger-like" tool? I guess not..

ATMEL MATEL .. STOPPED STEALING JYQUÑqR

arch linux, vscode doesn't show platformio

Better to stay away from Microsoft products.

this "not convincing" to say the least... :-D no, I will NOT try it, I'm perfectly fine with the arduino gui :-D (what a ridiculous bs)

Nice. Would you know how to change the font face in terminal? Cheers

WARNING TO ALL, using vscodium 1.85.1 and every C/C++ .vsix I have installed, tried 3 versions, vscodium reports: "The C/C++ extension installed is compatible with but does not match your system". So just a heads to everyone set on getting this running as i was, guess this no longer works, shame, I guess it's back to Arduino IDE then. Seems the error could not be any more cryptic/ambiguous if they tried, to be "compatible" but does "not match", what sort of daft msg is that, it either is compatible & matches and therefore works, or it don't, who writes this mess these days. Oh well, modern times I guess. EDIT: The platformio.vsix does install without any cryptic error reporting, but I guess it would be danger to use if the C/C++ vsix is not correct.

Made it the most complicated platform.

Wow you made it the most complicated app.

Nah! PlatformIO has its own problems, does random crap sometime and the serial interface just is not robust enough.

This is another vid that doesn't work klick alien head and no OPEN TAB is visible don't waste time on trying to learn from this vid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Visual studio is as much fun as a rectal exam to use

Absolutely superb and direct to the point, many thks, possibly the best YT vid on pio. Platformio seems to be a superb piece of software, unlike the total NIGHTMARE plie of **** vscode. Have spent 4 days trying to get the 'Verify' 'Upload' buttons to appear on the status bar, and all vscode reports is a path that does'nt exit. a WARNING to all newbes to this vs****, you 'may/will' be heading in ever decreasing circles getting nowhere even with the help of todays google and AI. It seems if vs**** has EVER been anywhere near your ( in my case Win10 ) installation then you have NO chance of uninstalling and starting a fresh, the miriads of total junk files/hooks it places on your system is futile, anyone with any issues like mine just run a 'grep' on you system after you think it's all gone, you will be shocked. It's UNDELETEABLE and so you have NO chance of 'starting again' you are finished. If you follow ANY vscode vid and have NEVER installed it in the past you will possibly run through with ease and wonder what this idiot is on about, but you will remember me when the problems start. The point of this is pio seems superb if only it could be connected with an IDE that was'nt a total piece of obfuscated cryptic bloatware that will/does pollute your system and OS where a reinstall maybe the only way of starting vs**** & pio over again due to any hickups. It really is unforgivable with todays software tools to create such a joke of an app that when issues kick in you are royally stuffed. If only PIO could be used with an alternative IDE, one that is manageable it would almost be king for us 'embedded nuts'. But to J's e-shack, thanks so much you really know how produce a top notch direct to the point but with nothing left out tutorial, Kind Rgds to you.

Kind of stupid to use if your a noob and nobody will guide you, arduino ide is so straightforward and lots of libraries to choose from, I've been using both for many years now but i like arduino ide more

Yeah, I remember that. I was refreshing LCSC daily to find some STM32 that would work for me. And finally, I ordered a few for like 15$ each lol. And only AFTER that, I started on PCB design :D
