Setting Up Arduino Platform(Windows)
STEP 1: Now, let’s get started. The first step would be to download and install the
Arduino IDE. This can be done easily by following the link
https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software and downloading the IDE for free. If you
already have one make sure it is of the latest version.
STEP 2: Go to File->Preferences.
Enter https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json into the “Additional Boards
Manager URLs” field as shown in the figure below.
Then, click the “OK” button:
Note: if you already have the ESP8266 boards URL, you can separate the URLs with a
comma.
STEP 3: Open Arduino and go to Tools->Board->Board Manager. Select Type as “All”
and search for esp32 by Espressif Systems and install the same. Close the window after
installation.
STEP 4: Connect your ESP32 board to your computer through the micro-USB cable.
Make sure the red LED goes high ON the module to ensure power supply.
STEP5: Start the Arduino IDE and navigate to Tools -> Boards and select
ESP32Dev board.
STEP6: Go back to Arduino IDE and under Tools -> Port select the Port to which your ESP
is connected to.
STEP7: Let’s upload the Blink Program, to check if we are able to program our ESP32
module. This program should blink the LED at an interval of 1 second.
STEP 6: To upload the code, just click on upload and you should see the Arduino console
displaying the following if everything works as expected.
