This document is intended to help you set up the software development environment for the hardware based on the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} chip by Espressif. After that, a simple example will show you how to use ESP-IDF (Espressif IoT Development Framework) for menu configuration, then for building and flashing firmware onto an {IDF_TARGET_NAME} board.
