Step 1: Quick Steps
===================
-Windows doesn't have a built-in "make" environment, so as well as installing the toolchain you will need a GNU-compatible environment. We use the MSYS2_ environment to provide this. You don't need to use this environment all the time (you can use Eclipse_ or some other front-end), but it runs behind the scenes.

You don't need to use this environment all the time (you can use :doc:`Eclipse </eclipse-setup>` or some other front-end), but it runs behind the scenes.
The quick setup is to download the Windows all-in-one toolchain & MSYS zip file from dl.espressif.com:
Use ``cd`` to change to the project directory (not the ESP-IDF directory.) Type ``make menuconfig`` to configure your project, then ``make`` to build it, ``make clean`` to remove built files, and ``make flash`` to flash (use the menuconfig to set the serial port for flashing.)
-If you'd like to use the Eclipse IDE instead of running ``make``, check out the Eclipse setup guide in this directory.
