# Hello World Example
Starts a FreeRTOS task to print "Hello World".
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
## How to use example
Follow detailed instructions provided specifically for this example.
Select the instructions depending on Espressif chip installed on your development board:
- [ESP32 Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/stable/get-started/index.html)
- [ESP32-S2 Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32s2/get-started/index.html)
## Example folder contents
The project **hello_world** contains one source file in C language [hello_world_main.c](main/hello_world_main.c). The file is located in folder [main](main).
ESP-IDF projects are build using CMake. The project build configuration is contained in `CMakeLists.txt` files that provide set of directives and instructions describing the project's source files and targets (executable, library, or both).
Below is short explanation of remaining files in the project folder.
```
├── CMakeLists.txt
├── example_test.py Python script used for automated example testing
├── main
│   ├── CMakeLists.txt
│   ├── component.mk Component make file
│   └── hello_world_main.c
├── Makefile Makefile used by legacy GNU Make
└── README.md This is the file you are currently reading
```
For more information on structure and contents of ESP-IDF projects, please refer to Section [Build System](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/build-system.html) of the ESP-IDF Programming Guide.
## Troubleshooting
* Program upload failure
* Hardware connection is not correct: run `idf.py -p PORT monitor`, and reboot your board to see if there are any output logs.
* The baud rate for downloading is too high: lower your baud rate in the `menuconfig` menu, and try again.
