Changed ' "/tasmota" root directory' to avoid time spent looking in "/tasmota".

that makes no sense

Quite correct. On reflection, it would make more sense to change it to "/TASMOTA root directory".

The guide is an excellent piece for someone who's not used GitPod before nor compiled TASMOTA before. As such a person, I followed the guide. Unfortunately the /TASMOTA directory contains a folder called tasmota, so I spent some minutes looking for platformio.ini in /TASMOTA/tasmota, when I should have been looking in /TASMOTA. In my fluster, I missed the instruction to scroll to the bottom.

There's an inconsistency, though. Elsewhere in the document, we are instructed to create user_config_override.h in the /tasmota folder. In this case, I'd suggest it changes to /TASMOTA/tasmota .

If you wish to reject the change, I'll gladly make a more appropriate suggestion. Do you prefer:

Select the /tasmota folder in the Explorer (1) pane. Create a new file called user_config_override.h (which could be perceived wrongly as it's actually /TASMOTA)

or

Open the platformio.ini file located in the /tasmota root directory (which could be perceived wrongly as it's actually /TASMOTA/tasmota)

Thanks for looking.

May be just located at the bottom of the file Explorer pane.

And add a picture of that: image
