make instead of ninja ?

Postby ppeter » Sun Mar 08, 2026 6:38 pm

Hello,

I am aware that the default build system of the IDF is Ninja, but out of curiosity, is it supposed be possible to be built when I have cmake generate Makefiles for traditional make, 'out of the box' ? Any experiences with that ?

Thanks

Not sure if I understood you correctly, but you can for example integrate vanilla CMakeLists projects into IDF projects. https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... components

And you can use CMake itself:
