How do you set up a new board ESP32-S3 N16R8

Just managed to get it to work, found esp32-s3-devkitc-1 - n16r8v.json file on github and copied it to the ,platformio/platforms/expressif32/boards folder. and created a new Project in Platformio and used that board.

platformio.ini:
[env:esp32-s3-devkitc-1 - n16r8v]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32-s3-devkitc-1 - n16r8v
framework = arduino
monitor_speed = 115200

lib_deps = FASTLED


main.cpp:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <FastLED.h>

#define NUM_LEDS 1
#define DATA_PIN 48
int i=0;

CRGB leds[NUM_LEDS];

void setup() {
FastLED.addLeds<SK6812, DATA_PIN, GRB>(leds, NUM_LEDS);
Serial.begin(115200);
}

void loop() {
if (i != 4){

for (i=0; i<4; i++){

  leds[0] = CRGB::Red;
  FastLED.show();
  Serial.println("RED LED is ON");
  delay(500);
  leds[0] = CRGB::Green;
  FastLED.show();
  Serial.println("GREEN LED is ON");
  delay(500);
  leds[0] = CRGB::Blue;
  FastLED.show();
  Serial.println("BLUE LED is ON");
  delay(500);
  leds[0] = CRGB::Black;
  FastLED.show();
  Serial.println("LED's are OFF");
  delay(1500);
}

}
}
