from the youtuber DroneBot Workshop (~300K subscribers).

I found this just-uploaded tutorial / primer for PlatformIO quite good. It shows installation, library management, the serial monitor, the library manager, differences between .ino and .cpp files, a project on 3 different boards (Uno, ESP32, SeedStudio Xiaomi) and a more complicated servo motor project. A beginner’s initiation to PlatformIO for Arduino IDE users, so to say.

Also has an accompanying article: Getting Started with PlatformIO - Better than the Arduino IDE

Enjoy :slight_smile:

This is an excellent tutorial. I watched it from beginning to end, and he is very thorough. It mentions a couple of gotchas that new users of platformIO may not be aware of.
