I downloaded amazon-freertos and I can build from the root folder with idf.py -DVENDOR=espressif -DBOARD=esp32_wrover_kit -DCOMPILER=xtensa-esp32 build

but if I cd vendors/espressif/esp-idf/examples/get-started/hello_world

and try to build, I get Failed to resolve component 'freertos'.

Executing action: all (aliases: build)
Running cmake in directory/dir/esp32/amazon-freertos/vendors/espressif/esp-idf/examples/get-started/hello_world/build

I get the same error with other commands, such as idf.py set-target esp32 and idf.py menuconfig.

  • idf.py ESP-IDF v4.2.2-276-g4e4142ef8
  • amazon-freertos - main/88606723d153a21321e20a5c670b9774a1e98748
  • macOS Monterey
  • python 3.9.12

Any ideas about what Iā€™m missing?

Running all the IDF commands is not supported there. Would you rather try this one- GitHub - FreeRTOS/iot-reference-esp32c3

If you are not using ESP32C3, you can try using this one - GitHub - espressif/esp-aws-iot: AWS-IoT SDK as an ESP-IDF component

Thanks.
