Difficult to compile ESP32 Project!

[szelote]

download the ESP32-master.ZIP and unzip it, there are no any files in many sub-directories.
I spend a lot of time to compile it and always check the failure.

later , I find I can clone by: git clone --recursive https://github.com/grblHAL/ESP32.git

the files are much more than ZIP downloaded. why different?

but still fail to compile it. because in driver.c #include "esp32s3/clk.h" //exit because of error " Not found the file"

comment this #include "esp32s3/clk.h". the last result is like that . Is it successful? Used static DRAM: 20388 bytes ( 104192 remain, 16.4% used) .data size: 9868 bytes .bss size: 10520 bytes Used static IRAM: 57110 bytes ( 73962 remain, 43.6% used) .text size: 56083 bytes .vectors size: 1027 bytes Used Flash size : 263887 bytes .text : 193415 bytes .rodata : 70216 bytes Total image size: 330865 bytes (.bin may be padded larger)

Spend 2 days to download ,install and compile. I almost lose interest of it .

Because github works like that for some reason.

#include "esp32s3/clk.h" //exit because of error " Not found the file"

Oops - I have made a mistake, will fix soon.

The easiest way to build the firmware is to use the Web Builder - unless you have reasons for modifying the code.

Using VSCode and the ESP-IDF plugin it compiles perfectly. I don't get the Web builder because it is very limited for DIY machines. It is not hard to create a custom mapping once you understand the little quirks.
