Step 2: Getting the SDK from github
|
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Option 1: Direct Download
|
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This is the quick option to get up and running with the SDK, but you'll have to re-download in order to update the SDK.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Navigate to the github repository and click Download. Unzip the SDK somewhere that you need to use it.
|
|
|

|
|
|
-Option 2: Using git
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-It takes longer to check out the SDK directly from git, but you'll have the option of using ``git pull`` to update the SDK sources.
|
|
|

|
|
|
Open an MSYS2 terminal window by running ``C:\msys32\msys2_shell.cmd``. The environment in this window is a bash shell.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-Change to the directory you want to clone the SDK into by typing a command like this one: ``cd "C:/path/to/dir"`` (note the forward-slashes in the path). Then type ``git clone https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git``

If you'd rather use a Windows UI tool to manage your git repositories, this is also possible. A wide range are available.
