- q3k 2y agoIf you find it acceptable to use Docker to develop/build projects then you probably have different standards than I do. But see my reply on another subthread for some of my issues with ESP-IDF.
- tredre3 2y agoI've been using esp-idf (both professionally and as a hobby) for almost a decade by now and I have not once used Docker. They even provide you with a fully offline SDK. Extract it and open a terminal and build things. No dependencies, no docker, no nothing. Your criticism regarding their usage of cmake and the kconfig language hold a bit more water. I've never had any issue with the kconfig system (at least not since they've reimplemented the menu system in python instead of whatever it was) but I have hit CMake limitations a few times.
