PlatformIO is one of most popular embedded development tool. Currently, it supports Arduino ESP32 and ESP-IDF from Espressif (other platforms are also supported).
To install PIO, you can follow this Getting Started, provided by PIO at `docs.platformio.org`_.
To test the latest Arduino ESP32, you need to change your project *platform.ini* accordingly.
- Start a new project and select one of the available board. You can change after by changing the *platform.ini* file.
