Board selection for feather ESP32

Hello, just loaded up Visual Micro into my VS2019 to work on my first project.  I picked up a feather ESP32 and when I go to select the board, I do not see it listed.  Is there a comparable board or a way to add that board in?

The Board Manager should allow this to be installed for the ESP32 platform in a few clicks.

or just follow the guides to install into the Arduino IDE then Visual Micro will also be configured. 

If Visual Micro is open when you install into the Arduino IDE then restart Visual Studio or click the "Re-Scan" button on the Visual Micro Platform Explorer.

In essence you can just follow the standard Adafruit (or any other) Arduino installation guide for whatever hardware you have. The esp32 Arduino core is produced by the manufacturer of the esp32 a company called espressif.

I see the board listed in the Arduino IDE but when I rescan it doesn't show up as an available listing.  I've got 71 boards listed in VS and like 100+ boards in Arduino IDE... Ideas how to get the scan to pick them up?  It did pick up the first back I had in Arduino, but then I added in the additional boards and now it's not picking those up...

Never mind, it looks like I had to load VS2019 as an administrator for it to do a rescan... The board is there now!
