Using PlatformIO with Dasduino Connect Plus

Customer:

I just got a Dasduino Connect Plus and was able to upload my project via Arduino IDE. My project is growing, and I’d like to switch to PlatformIO with VS Code. Has anyone configured PlatformIO for Dasduino boards? A tutorial on how to set this up would be helpful.

Soldered Support:

We don’t have Dasduino boards configured for PlatformIO yet, but you can use the official latest ESP32 board definition for the WROVER-E (which is on the CONNECTPLUS). There may be differences in how your code is compiled due to the more updated ESP32 board definition, but compilation errors are unlikely. Check the upload settings for CONNECTPLUS and use the same ones with the ESP32 board definition.

Alternatively, you can use VSCode with the Arduino extension, which works well for development.
