What does everyone think about the ESP-IDF move to CMake? I personally thought their "legacy" Makefile setup was really nice and worked perfectly for me. What does CMake bring to the table that I haven't appreciated yet?

It would also be nice if their tooling was less Python-heavy, that's a common point of failure and slowdown when running commands.

Overall though I agree, the ESP-IDF is great and I wish more chip makers put a similar amount of effort into their tooling.
