What code language is used for ESP32?

Postby normnet52 » Mon May 27, 2019 4:48 pm

First post considering ESP32. I am inquiring as to the code language used in ESP32 micros? Is C or Python the language utilized for coding?

The compiler is for c/c++ which is officially supported.

But there are various interpreters for python, lua, JavaScript, and more available.from third parties and open source.

Thanks for the language clarification. What about the code editor? Is there an Espressif IDE or would Eclipse or similar be required?

It's mostly left up to the user: Eclipse or visual studio code or visual micro or clion have been used. There are some writeups on the web.

Do the example programs all compile from the same setup of software (excluding updated versions) or are there differing methods and results of coding and compilation in ESP32?
