Need help installing esp32

hay i got an esp32 from azdelivery but i cant connect it to esp home i get this error everytime i try to flash it

*** missing SConscript file '/data/cache/platformio/packages/framework-arduinoespressif32/tools/platformio-build-esp32.py'
File "/data/cache/platformio/packages/framework-arduinoespressif32/tools/platformio-build.py", line 161, in <module>

im still quite new to homeassistant so please dumb it down for me thanks in advanced for helping

Have you prepared an ESPhome YAML source file to compile and load? Did you use https://web.esphome.io/ to load the minimal stub ESPhome code into the ESP32, first? You need to use the Chrome browser to do this.

i did it through chrome now and yes i used the https://web.esphome.io/ i also can go to the dashboard of the esp after you put in your network details but i still get this error while adding it to esphome

and this is my yaml

substitutions:

Good job posting your YAML input file, properly formatted. :revolving_hearts:

I’m not nearly as familiar with setting up a wifi access point in ESPhome, but I have to wonder about the empty/null braces beside ap:. I would expect to see some of the optional configuration parameters from WiFi Component — ESPHome there.

im planing on conecting al kinds of sensors to controll my aquariums not tying to make a wifi axcess point i had somthing that worked but stoped so i desided to start a new my old yaml looked like

esp32:
  board: esp32dev
  framework:

  password: !secret wifi_password

  # Enable fallback hotspot (captive portal) in case wifi connection fails
  ap:
    ssid: "Esphome-Web-965F58"

Use the option to “clean build files”

hey there i tried that now to
