Arduino IDE – Install ESP32 Support manually

April 30th, 2019 10:02 PM | by Alfred Markus Paar | Posted in Elektronik

Arduino IDE (1.8.9 in my case) needs to be installed first and started at least once

Download an install
1. Download the sources of the ESP32 WiFi Chip here here
2. Go to C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Arduino and create the following folder structure there:
  - hardware/espressif/esp32
3. Extract the previously downloaded .zip to the esp32 folder
4. Navigate to the tools folder in esp32 and execute get.exe
5. Wait until download is finished
Check installation
1. Start Arduino IDE
2. Go to Tools>Boards and choose the correct board (ESP32 Dev Module in my case)
3. Connect the board (driver) and try to get borad info: Tool>GetBoardInfo
4. Try to upload some sample code
5. Check out the console if compile and upload works, something like this should appear at the end
  - Leaving…
    Hard resetting via RTS pin…
