Description
I found out about Platform IO recently and wanted to give it a shot. Set everything up accordingly and loaded a blink sketch and uploaded. The pin was 2 (onboard LED I believe). After uploading and the auto reset after upload, it did nothing. So I disconnected and connected again. Now the board is not recognized by the PC. Nothing shows up on comport on device manager (using win11). The power light on the ESP32 lights up but that is pretty much it. Help would be much appreciated, thanks.
UPDATE: After holding BOOT + EN, the pc recognizes the COM port but if I try to write a sketch, it fails and the board vanishes from COM port.
Sketch
int LED_BUILTIN = 2;
void setup() {
pinMode (LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);
delay(1000);
}Debug Message
I don't have the original debug message. This is what I got after BOOT + EN and the COM port showing up.
Sketch uses 198842 bytes (15%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1310720 bytes.
Global variables use 13248 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 314432 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 327680 bytes.
