@teastain
When you only use a single simple sketch, Arduino IDE is ok.
When you use many files, many classes, many self-maintained libraries, platformio is a better choice.

RE: T-Display-S3: Can't flash large example projects
@teastain It's funny, but with Arduino IDE (I use Arduino IDE 2.0.3), it works.
I checked the differences.
Arduino IDE uses the following packagesDownloading packages esp32:riscv32-esp-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 esp32:xtensa-esp32-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 esp32:xtensa-esp32s2-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 esp32:xtensa-esp32s3-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 esp32:esptool_py@4.2.1 esp32:openocd-esp32@v0.11.0-esp32-20220706 esp32:mkspiffs@0.2.3 esp32:mklittlefs@3.0.0-gnu12-dc7f933 esp32:esp32@2.0.6 Installing esp32:riscv32-esp-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 esp32:riscv32-esp-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 installed Installing esp32:xtensa-esp32-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 esp32:xtensa-esp32-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 installed Installing esp32:xtensa-esp32s2-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 esp32:xtensa-esp32s2-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 installed Installing esp32:xtensa-esp32s3-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 esp32:xtensa-esp32s3-elf-gcc@gcc8_4_0-esp-2021r2-patch5 installed Installing esp32:esptool_py@4.2.1 esp32:esptool_py@4.2.1 installed Installing esp32:openocd-esp32@v0.11.0-esp32-20220706 esp32:openocd-esp32@v0.11.0-esp32-20220706 installed Installing esp32:mkspiffs@0.2.3 esp32:mkspiffs@0.2.3 installed Installing esp32:mklittlefs@3.0.0-gnu12-dc7f933 esp32:mklittlefs@3.0.0-gnu12-dc7f933 installed Installing platform esp32:esp32@2.0.6 Configuring platform.

The version of esptool used in Arduino IDE is 4.2.1, not 4.4 used in platformio
Maybe other packages differ, but esptool is a candidate.
In platformio it uses esp32@2.0.5, in Arduino IDE is already uses esp32@2.0.6The baud rate to flash the sketch is also different. It uses 921600 rather than 460800 as in platformio.
Sketch uses 1396825 bytes (44%) of program storage space. Maximum is 3145728 bytes. Global variables use 46804 bytes (14%) of dynamic memory, leaving 280876 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 327680 bytes.

At the moment, platformio is not functional and I have to use Arduino IDE.
I will create an issue in github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/T-Display-S3/ so LilyGO knows about this. -
T-Display-S3: Can't flash large example projects
I cloned https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/T-Display-S3 and uploaded example projects from the example subdirectory.
Small example projects as example/tft using only TFT_eSPI works as expected.
Large example projects as example/factory using lvgl fails during the flash process.I use vscode and platformio and haven't changed anything in the code.
Sometimes example/factory fails just at the beginning

I use different computers (always Windows 10) and different USB cables (USB A-USB C, USB C-USB C), but it always fails.
Do you know why large example projects fail?
The flash chip is a winbond W25Q128JV with 128Mbits resp. 16MBytes... a lot of space available!
