Use Proteus for schematic + real ESP32:
In Arduino IDE:
If you are looking for more "official" or advanced support, Labcenter Electronics recently announced Proteus VSM for MicroPython , which supports the Nano ESP32 proteus esp32 simulation
Best practices and tips

// You can add custom ESP32 library files to Proteus // Download ESP32 IDX and LIB files from online sources // Copy to: Proteus > LIBRARY folder
| Feature | How to Simulate | |------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------| | | Virtual Terminal or COMPIM (with VSPD) | | I2C | I2C Debugger or connect I2C sensor models (e.g., DS1621) | | ADC | Use potentiometer to analog pin → voltage graph | | External Interrupt | Use a button → GPIO → observe in logic analyzer | | PWM (LEDC) | Connect LED + oscilloscope to PWM pin | Compile: In your IDE, select "Export Compiled Binary
If you want to troubleshoot a specific issue with your setup, tell me: What or behavior are you encountering? Which version of Proteus are you currently running?
To run a simulation, Proteus needs the compiled code (usually a or .BIN file) generated from your IDE (e.g., Arduino IDE or ESP-IDF). Compile: In your IDE, select "Export Compiled Binary."
