ESP-IDF Terminal

This would launch a local terminal with all the environment variables set under Preferences > C/C++ > Build > Environment. The default working directory would be either the currently selected project or IDF_PATH if there is no project selected.

The terminal PATH is also configured with esptool, espcoredump, partition_table, and app_update component paths, so it is convenient to access them directly from the ESP-IDF terminal.

To launch the ESP-IDF Terminal:

• Click on the Open a Terminal icon from the toolbar.

• Choose ESP-IDF Terminal from the terminal drop-down and click OK to launch a terminal.
