Configure ESP32/esp8266 with OTA but Without SPIFFS in Arduino IDE

I’m working with an ESP32 and esp8266 in the Arduino IDE, and I noticed that the available partition schemes include options like

"Minimal SPIFFS (xxMB APP with OTA)."

However, I don’t use SPIFFS at all in my project and would like to eliminate it entirely to maximize the space for my sketch while still supporting OTA (Over-The-Air updates).

Is there a way to configure a partition scheme with OTA but no SPIFFS, not even minimal SPIFFS?

Thanks in advance!

Different models have different choices. I use the DOIT esp32 and it has no spiffs. If you have a board you want/need to use pick minimal SPIFFS. Otherwise search the usual places for the configuration you want.
