Problem with Platform.io Build - Testing a ESP32 program

Hi there, I am having trouble building a ESP32 program, as the ESP32 library is buggy and refuses to work.

This is the response of when I try to build it:

Here is what it looks like on my screen

Eh, there are quite a few things that don’t make sense here at all.

You are building for an ESP32 board yet you’re including libraries meant for ARM-type processors and specifically STM32 ones. That can’t possibly work since they’re meant for different processors types.

You have named your main source file main.c, and as thus it will be using the C language. Then you attempt to include Arduino libraries, which are written in C++ – this won’t work, C code can’t understand C++ specific keywords. You need to be having a main.cpp for this to work.

I’d suggest taking one small step at a time – first build and upload a small blinky example to confirm everything’s working, then add one library at time to the project and keep building up that way.
