That’s all that you need to get started with ESP32-S2!
Now you are ready to try some other examples, or go straight to developing your own applications.
Important: Some of examples do not support ESP32-S2 because required hardware is not included in ESP32-S2
so it cannot be supported.
If building an example, please check the README file for the Supported Targets table. If this is present
including ESP32-S2 target, or the table does not exist at all, the example will work on ESP32-S2.
1.15 Updating ESP-IDF
You should update ESP-IDF from time to time, as newer versions fix bugs and provide new features. The simplest way
to do the update is to delete the existing esp-idf folder and clone it again, as if performing the initial installation
described in Step 2. Get ESP-IDF.
Another solution is to update only what has changed. The update procedure depends on the version of ESP-IDF you
are using.
After updating ESP-IDF, execute the Install script again, in case the new ESP-IDF version requires different versions
of tools. See instructions at Step 3. Set up the tools.
Once the new tools are installed, update the environment using the Export script. See instructions at Step 4. Set up
the environment variables.
