This is the alternative programming esp32 not using Arduino but ESPHome, ESPHome is a system for configuring ESP8266 and ESP32 devices using a simple YAML configuration language. It automates the generation of firmware code, allowing you to create custom home automation devices without extensive programming knowledge.

Key features:

• User-friendly interface: YAML configuration makes defining device features and behavior easy.
• Wide range of components: Supports various sensors, actuators, communication protocols, and integrations with home automation platforms.
• Automatic code generation: Compiles firmware tailored to your device, saving time and effort.
• Over-the-air updates: Enables remote updates of device firmware without manual flashing.
• Integration with Home Assistant: Seamless integration for easy control and automation.

Instalation

First install esphome using pip in python

pip install esphome

and write this file to  example.yaml

Example YAML file for ESP32:

esphome:
  name: esp32_example
  platform: ESP32
  board: esp32dev

wifi:
  ssid: "Your_WiFi_SSID"
  password: "Your_WiFi_Password"

# Enable logging
logger:

# Enable Home Assistant API for integration
api:

ota:
  password: "OTA_Password"

# Example sensor configuration
sensor:
  - platform: dht
    pin: GPIO23
    model: DHT22
    temperature:
      name: "Living Room Temperature"
    humidity:
      name: "Living Room Humidity"
