WOUW! 2000 configuration rules

2000+ LINES OF CONFIGURATION RULES
In sdkconfig.esp32doit-devkit-v1 I’ve found all these rules and no hint on where to find some kind of explanation to what all these beauty is supposed to rule.
O yes, there’s some comment when dividing the blocks. That helps a bit but not enough for me.
Can, will, someone please point me to a start unraveling this riddle?

ESP-IDF as a big framework with thousands of configuration options. The default options for everything should be quite sane though. Documentation for these options is provided by Espressif.

https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/stable/esp32/api-reference/kconfig.html

also see further configuration options in each component https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/stable/esp32/api-reference/kconfig.html#component-config.

If you don’t have a problem with the current ESP-IDF configuration, I would suggest leaving it alone rathern than understanding every single line and option in it. If you need a particular change, only look into the documentation of the particular subcomponent for possible config options.

Max,
Thank you.
“If you need a particular change, only look into the documentation of the particular subcomponent for possible config options.”
Very sane advice too. Otherwise we might go insane.
