About the project

Arduino core for the ESP32 family of SoCs: lets you write Arduino API sketches and flash them to ESP32, S2, S3, C3, C5, C6, H2, P4 chips.

Useful for

Flash an ESP32 with an Arduino sketch without learning ESP-IDF
Build firmware for several ESP32 chips from one codebase
Add an external Arduino library and check its ESP32 compatibility

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
