This is just baseless and I don't even understand to what end. ESP32 isn't missing features vs say Arduino Uno and does not act oddly.

- enslavedrobot 3y agoAgreed. I've had one running for 3 years as a garage door opener relay and it works like a charm. Reboots after power failures everytime.
- joshspankit 3y agoI think you missed the intent of the message you’re replying to. They are saying that when you use the Arduino ecosystem on the ESP32 you are missing features (whether that’s Arduino features that don’t work on the ESP32 or more likely ESP32 features that are not available through the Arduino toolchain). Personally for the latter reason I think if you’re targeting the ESP32 you should skip the Arduino ecosystem and just write native code.
- ansible 3y agoEspressif publishes their own C SDK for their ESP32 products. They also support Rust development (using the mainline compiler) on some of the RISC-V modules like the ESP32-C3.
- m00x 3y agoArduino libraries don't all work on the ESP32, and some respond oddly vs an ATMEGA chip. Arduino framework on the ESP32 is an afterthought, it wasn't designed for it. I use the ESP IDF framework because it has so much better support.
- crote 3y agoThe biggest downside of the ESP32 is that it doesn't support 5V GPIO, and I believe having to run the wifi stack makes running cycle-accurate code quite tricky.
