That sounds great! I know IDF 5 will be different, but hopefully some of what you did for 4.4.7 will still apply. I think if we're going to all this effort we should really try and target IDF 5 as it provides the widest support.
Did you manage to get it building within the existing Makefile framework?
I know someone put a lot of work into https://github.com/rgomezwap/EspruinoS3, but because it throws out the whole old build system it's not something I could pull back in to the main project - and I'm not willing to completely re-architect Espruino for it as it's got to support a bunch of different hardware alongside ESP32.
I know at the moment we have this system where we precompile the IDF which we then download and include in the build. Computers have got a bit more powerful since that went in, and I imagine if that's making it difficult we could ignore that and just build it each time without it being a total nightmare.
