155-166: New FAQ Section: Detailed Steps for Building Multiple ConfigurationsThe new FAQ section clearly outlines the step-by-step procedure for configuring multiple build setups in the Espressif-IDE. The instructions are detailed and follow a logical order. However, consider adding a brief introductory sentence before the steps to explain the benefits or prerequisites for using multiple configurations, which can provide additional context for new users.
157-160: Configuration for Build ReleaseThe steps guiding users to create a new project, open the Launch Configuration dialog, and enter
-B build_releaseare concise and clear. Including a note or reference to a screenshot (if available) could help users quickly verify that they are in the right dialog or section.
161-164: Duplicating and Modifying the ConfigurationThe duplicated configuration section is well-described. It instructs users to reopen the configuration dialog and update the CMake argument to
-B build_dev, which is straightforward. It may be beneficial to mention that this process can be repeated for additional configurations if required, ensuring users know the approach is scalable.
165-166: Initiating the Build ProcessThe final instruction to click the Build icon is clear and actionable. For improved clarity, consider adding a tip on where users can verify the output build folder or inspect build logs, helping them confirm the process has completed successfully.
