Support for ESP32-S3 in IDE 2.0.3?

Using Arduino IDE 1.x

I have ordered the ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1 and hope I will find support for it in Arduino IDE 2.0.3

Hi @sveinesp32. Arduino IDE 2.x does not come with built-in support for the ESP32-S3 microcontroller specifically, but you can use the Arduino IDE Boards Manager to easily install the ESP32 boards platform, which adds support for the ESP32-S3.

Instructions for doing that are available here:

https://docs.espressif.com/projects/arduino-esp32/en/latest/installing.html#installing-using-arduino-ide

And general instructions for using Boards Manager here:

Please let me know if you have any questions or problems while installing the ESP32 boards platform.

Thank you, now it has started the installation process for ESP32-S3

Now the intallation isfinnished, and I have many S3 boards to choose from, but none of them are ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1. Maybe I can use ESP32S3 Dev Module instead?

Yeah, the "ESP32S3 Dev Module" board will work. Some manufacturers submit entries for their specific boards, but others don't. The "Dev Module" boards provide general purpose support for each of the ESP32 microcontrollers. After you select that board in Arduino IDE, you will find a bunch of additional menus are added under the Arduino IDE Tools menu. This allows to further configure your board (though likely you can just use the default settings if you aren't interested in doing any special configuration).

Thank you so much @ptillisch. Forums like this is gold.

You are welcome. I'm glad if I was able to be of assistance.
