"Will it be supported within the arduino IDE?"
Well it's just a RISCV core which you can compile code with GCC, so I guess adding support to the Arduino IDE will be pretty easy. The wifi part is probably binary like other chips, but that did not prevent ESP8266/32 support in Arduino IDE.
- bri3d 4y agoCompiling code is the easy part, peripheral drivers which implement both the basic Arduino functions (digitalWrite and so on and so forth) and more advanced stuff like SPI/I2C, WiFi, etc. are necessary to make a working "Arduino ecosystem." I think the reason that ESP was so successful is they provided both a working Arduino standard library so that sketches could just be copy-pasted from other platforms, and a reasonably decent real RTOS-backed development environment (ESP-IDF) for once users outgrew the Arduino training wheels.
