YOU can Learn the ESP32 in 15 Minutes: Hello World!

I found your channel 3 years ago and have been a fan ever since. I started with the ESP32 board with the OLED you used teaching us to display information and designs on it and I was hooked. Have made many projects with addressable LEDs, WLED, remote sensors, all because of you. Thank you again.

Really appreciate you doing this series on ESP-32 with all the details. Would love to see this series continue and cover both basic and complex functions, hardware and software. Thanks Again Dave!

Dave, I've just found your channel and have to say it's absolutely brilliant. You are an excellent host. I love your content, and especially your delivery - which is first rate. Looking forward to going through your older videos. I'm sure there are some absolute gems in there!

Just getting back into esp32s after a few years break, Great to see how things have moved on. Looking forward to the rest of the series

@Dave: I find when I talk to people that describing the ESP32's standby in terms of battery life helps drive it home. The ESP32's idle is roughly 10% the self-depletion rate of an 18650 cell. That is to say that an ESP32 on standby for a year, powered by an 18650 might have 30% state of charge, and 7% out of the 70% battery capacity lost was used by the ESP32's standby. So implementing an SCR to allow it to fully power itself off is a waste of time, since the SCR will consume more power than that by way of voltage drop during operation.

This episode is one of my favorites. You are so genuine in your enthusiasm about the ESP32, Its fun to watch you go through the process in realtime. I miss that quality in your newer stuff. Thought still great, this hobbyist level stuff is what I really enjoy.

I just discovered you in April 2022 and a newbie at coding (completed 70 hours bootcamp Javascript) and I really like your channel, so thanks for your great content and being so positive.

I've been using ESP32 devices (as I suspect a lot of people have) with Home Assistant and it's great to see an intro to programming on these. I didn't know about the serial monitor in VSCode - that's a real bonus. Thanks for this video and I look forward to more videos on the ESP32 as I think it's a great little microprocessor. Cheers 🙂

So glad I ran across this episode. Wish I could give it several thumbs up! One advantage of finding this "old" episode is that I might have a chance of finding the next one in this series! Thanks.

Would love a continuation of this series. Love the videos.

The ESP32 is a wonderfull coding playground indeed ! Great introductory video.

Super cool Dave, been using microntrllers since 90s, n started mak8ng projects with the esp8266, now recently started with the esp32, great to see u into these as well, great channel, lots of history, cheers

This is a great video - I get lots of people trying to use my projects who are very inexperienced and don't know how to build and upload projects - this will be a great resource for them.

It's great to listen to someone at this level of knowledge finally. Not slow and boring.

14:43 - Fancy watch, especially for first class! Sure, it’s only $20, but it’s entirely bespoke and the labor that went into it… well, that was priceless! 😅

Dave, thank you for going through all of the steps - this helps us beginners better understand the process and the fine details.

Dave, Your videos are always informative and entertaining. You've totally sold me on the ESP32 now!

I loved your video! You were so informative and articulate. Love your production value and attention to detail.

Found your channel looking for Pinball cadet and so far have watched a vast amount of your vids, content and delivery is perfect for me, so detailed and straight to the point...love leds and have done since the early 80s...also a great fan of Tempest but mine is now gone...thankyou for all the info given, learning so much 😁 and obviousl;y subbed and liked all of them....

love it. You're LED series got me to get started with the ESP32.
