A single ESP32's flash can contain multiple apps, as well as many different kinds of data (calibration data, filesystems, parameter storage, etc). For this reason a partition table is flashed to offset 0x8000 in the flash.
A single ESP32's flash can contain multiple apps, as well as many different kinds of data (calibration data, filesystems, parameter storage, etc). For this reason a partition table is flashed to (:envvar:`default offset <CONFIG_PARTITION_TABLE_OFFSET>`) 0x8000 in the flash.
Partition table length is 0xC00 bytes (maximum 95 partition table entries). An MD5 checksum is appended after the table data. If the partition table is signed due to `secure boot`, the signature is appended after the partition table.

Offset & Size
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Only the first offset field is required (we recommend using 0x10000). Partitions with blank offsets will start after the previous partition.
Partitions with blank offsets will start after the previous partition, or after the partition table in the case of the first partition.
App partitions have to be at offsets aligned to 0x10000 (64K). If you leave the offset field blank, the tool will automatically align the partition. If you specify an unaligned offset for an app partition, the tool will return an error.
Sizes and offsets can be specified as decimal numbers, hex numbers with the prefix 0x, or size multipliers K or M (1024 and 1024*1024 bytes).
If you want the partitions in the partition table to work with any starting offset (:envvar:`CONFIG_PARTITION_TABLE_OFFSET`) of the table itself, leave the offset field (in CSV file) for all partitions blank. Similarly, if changing the partition table offset then be aware that all blank partition offsets may change to match, and that any fixed offsets may now collide with the partition table (causing an error).
Flags
~~~~~
Only one flag is currently supported, ``encrypted``. If this field is set to ``encrypted``, this partition will be encrypted if :doc:`/security/flash-encryption` is enabled.
(Note that ``app`` type partitions will always be encrypted, regardless of whether this flag is set or not.)
