  • Arduino IDE
  • PlatformIO IDE (VS Code)
  • LUA
  • MicroPython
  • Espressif IDF (IoT Development Framework)
  • JavaScript

Reading an article about Microcontrollers (MCUs) there was a discussion on IDE's and this

it is rare for an MCU vendor to support more than one free IDE platform, and most of these are based around Eclipse, which is recognized as an industry workhorse for software development. Eclipse is a highly popular IDE and has been customized very effectively for ease of use by some vendors, but it can impose extensive CPU and memory resource requirements due to its Java-based core. By comparison, Microsoft’s Visual Studio Code (VS Code) is extremely lightweight and fast, explaining why many engineers are choosing it over other development environments.

UPDATE:  I was never successful with this component, I started a LED project and purchased a different board and have made some success. ESP32 S.  Using the Arduino IDE v2 in linux 

But then I learned more on the various manufactures and there chipsets. This board was an 8266 and setup like this.

once I had this updated the board started to work, blink that is.

Here is a great resource for these small boards and their support

Buying crappy components off Amazon to learn some tek.

 There are a few steps and different links to get things started. 

Main info page : https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/hw-reference/esp32/get-started-devkitc.html

make sure to install ESP32 in boards manager
click tools, click board, click boards manager
type in esp32 in search
click install
after install
click tools

another board i have worked with is the ESP32 S   this was an amazon purchase also https://fixit.localad.com/led-fix-up/
