Adding new tools to the catalog about vcpkg-ce-catalog HOT 7 OPEN

@fearthecowboy awesome!

Yeah... That Python stuff on their build system it's so crazy. It completely blows it and makes over difficult to tap into it, not to mention that it makes harder to deal with installs and such.
I recently "glued" the IDF build system with nanoFramework build system CMake based. It was a lot of work and tweaks so I'm most curious on how you'll do it. 😜 Maybe we can even improve it based on whatever you're come up with.

At this very moment, we're working on some things necessary to bootstrap esp-idf in a clean, cross-plat way. A smidgen tricky since they have some serious python in some of their stuff, but it's coming along.

Probably in the next few weeks. I'll ping you when I push up a build that can do it.

Past that, we're going to split out things into many registries that can be curated independently (ie, for different vendors, or groups/etc) which makes it easier to accept contributions.

Wondering if there was any progress on this by now...

Suggesting CMSIS-Toolbox:

@fearthecowboy any progress on adding Espressif IDF? Thanks.

Apologies, haven't been doing a good job of tracking comments here.

Regarding CMSIS toolbox, that is now part of the default catalogs with the vcpkg tool but the contents are managed by the CMSIS toolbox folks. If you look in your vpkg home directory the default vcpkg-configuration there should have an entry for microsoft which is this registry and cmsis which points to their registry here: https://github.com/Open-CMSIS-Pack/vcpkg-ce-registry. So you should be able to find and install ctools with vpkg now.

Regarding Espressif, we did some experiments we need to get back to. We just updated the rpi pico sdk here and I've got a post covering that soon. Hopefully getting back to Espressif soon.

Thank you for the update. Looking forward to both!
