I'm new to the microcontroller world and am using ESP-IDF on the recommendation of a friend. Espressif's example code is pretty good! I was leaning towards STM32, but the ESP32 seems to do everything we need for now... pretty nice device for $5 or whatever.

I'm also new, and picked ESP32 devices on recommendation of a colleague. I've had great fun, learning a ton to get going.

Available libraries have certainly made the process much easier.
