ESP32 Forum

I've built my own ESP32C3 board. How do I use it in PlatformIO? (VSCode) I have already tested it in Arduino IDE and I can program it and see that it works, but I don't get access to the serial communication via the built-in JTAG. I am trying to see if I can do so with platformIO, but PlatformIO only gives me the option for certain commercial dev kits, and I don't know how to add my own to the list of options.

Any help would be appreciated!

Espressif does not control additions to platformIO. You need to contact them to see if they are willing to add it.

Does that mean I can't use PlatformIO to write programs for a board that I design? That doesn't sound right. I was thinking that I would need to make some new description file that would specify the specs of my board and PlatformIO would then recognize it.

A couple of years ago I created a badminton scoreboard using platformio and Arduino using a custom board - maybe it will help. https://github.com/liebman/BadmintonScore

I thought you wanted to be able to pick your board from the list when you start a new project.
you sure can modify platformio.ini file. Check out their docs, they talk about it.

Its really easy. Just follow the docs at:
