Compile Esp8266/Esp32 Arduino Code with gmake on FreeBSD

This is inspired by Raffeale from FreeBSD forum. The original link is here.

Yet when following the step of Raffeale’s post, I bumped into some trouble. So, with a little trial and error myself. I’v figured out a way to compile code for Esp8266 with gmake.

System and Board

This is tested on FreeBSD 12.2 release amd64. No problem at all.

The board I’m using is NodeMcuv2.

Other system or board is not tested.

Steps

I’m dealing with Uno boards and Esp at the same time, so I installed the following packages.

# gives u both ability to compile code for arduino uno series and esp series
sudo pkg install arduino-mk arduino-core uarduno arduino-builder

Next step is to clone the Esp8266 official repo. Y
