That native sdk and the vscode plugin are very professional. There is a bit of a learning curve to get into it, but once you do, it's very functional and the developers are super supportive. They have fixed bugs for me in days.
replyArduino nano are made by arduino using Espressif chips, and Arduino IDE support is indeed hit and miss.
replyESP-IDF, the official C SDK, is a bit more work, and there is drama around platform-io, but it’s significantly more stable.

replyWhat do you mean ?
What do you mean by that? bad support for what?
replyDon't use the Arduino framework, use ESP-IDF or Rust.
replyFor those using PlatformIO, the folks at pioarduino[0] are doing a great job keeping up with Arduino Core 3.x support.
reply ```
# platformio.ini
platform = https://github.com/pioarduino/platform-espressif32.git#55.03.37
framework = arduino
```
how's Rust on the xtensa cores ?
replyStill requires using rust compiled against their llm fork. 'espup' makes it easy if you're okay with using it.
replyOther than that it works pretty well. This is if you run ESP-IDF, with bare-metal rust it's either best thing ever or meh. Rust community seems to use stm32 and picos more.
