Eclipse IDE for ESP Jumpstart

I am new to the ESP environment. I was going through the ESP Jumpstart code examples https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... arted.html). I have cloned the Jumpstart repository on my local drive on my PC. In the getting started guide they mention about compiling (provided examples) & flashing the device through command line. I wanted to know if instead of using command line could I do the similar steps (compiling, flashing the dev kit)of the existing examples provided in "Jumpstart" within the Eclipse environment (already installed IDF plugin through Eclipse and able to compile the demo examples provided within the "C:\esp\esp-idf-v4.2\examples\get-started" folder). If yes, how do I do it?
I tried foll. option of "Open projects thru File System" in eclipse ide and opened the "1_Hello_World" example within the "esp-Jumpstart" folder but it does not give me the option to compile the project. What am I doing wrong?
I am not sure if this was correct forum to post this question but since it was Eclipse IDE related hence posting it here.
