Getting Started with ESP32 using Arduino IDE - Blink LED

Image
The ESP32 is a popular microcontroller platform for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. It offers a wide range of capabilities and can be used for a variety of projects. The Arduino IDE is one of the most popular development environments for the ESP32, as it provides an easy-to-use interface and powerful libraries. In this article, we will explore how to get started with the ESP32 using the Arduino IDE and blink an LED. Setting up the Arduino IDE Before we begin, we need to set up the Arduino IDE to work with the ESP32. First, download and install the latest version of the Arduino IDE from the official website. Then, open the IDE and go to the Preferences menu. In the Additional Boards Manager URLs field, add the following URL: https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json . This will allow the Arduino IDE to install the necessary libraries and board definitions for the ESP32. Next, go to the Boards Manager in the Tools menu and search for "esp32". Select the ESP32 ...
