备注

There is a idf.notificationMode configuration setting if you do not want to see the output automatically. Please review ESP-IDF Settings <settings> to see how to modify this configuration setting.

You could modify the behavior of the build task with idf.cmakeCompilerArgs for Cmake configure step and idf.ninjaArgs for Ninja step. For example, using idf.ninjaArgs: [-j N] where N is the number of jobs run in parallel.
