Great tutorial

Hello and thank you for an awesome and succinct tutorial - just what I needed (almost!) I have platformio set up with existing projects - your example kind of started with a new repo and then creating a project within that repore, committing and pushing. I tried creating a new repo and pointing it to my existing project and I just ended up with the repo name in my project at the same level as lib and source etc. Do i now 'simply' move all the src/lib etc into that new folder (repo name) or will that break platformio's reference to my existing project?

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

Perfect video for my needs, thank you very much

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?

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.

GREAT! not to short and not to long. Just perfect explanation... Thanks! #ThumbsUp

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.

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

Thanks I needed this GitHub start.

Nice tutorial but one step is missing which is described in this video here: czcams.com/video/mmLuheCkDuM/video.html

helped a lot. Thank you 🙂

Thanks!

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.

Thank you :)

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

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?

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. 👍

Thank you very much for half the information.

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!

Love it!

thanks bro

Thanks for the tutorial! Super helpful.

Thanks, I appreciate your tutorial

dude, thanks.

Thanks for doing this ... you made it logical and easy

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

New sub here!

good one!
