 ## 2 Demo setup
 
 ### 2.1 Setup AWS IoT Core
 
-To setup AWS IoT Core, follow the [AWS IoT Core Setup Guide](AWSSetup.md). The guide shows you how to sign up for an AWS account, create a user, and register your device with AWS IoT Core.
-After you have followed the instructions in the AWS IoT Core Setup Guide, you will have created a **device Endpoint**, an AWS IoT **thing**, a **PEM-encoded device certificate**, a **PEM-encoded private key**, and a **PEM-encoded root CA certificate**. (An explanation of these entities is given in the Setup Guide.) The root CA certificate can also be downloaded [here](https://www.amazontrust.com/repository/AmazonRootCA1.pem). Your ESP23-C3 board must now be provisioned with these entities in order for it to connect securely with AWS IoT Core.

 ### 2.2 Configure the project with the AWS IoT Thing Name and AWS device Endpoint
 
 The demo will connect to the AWS IoT device Endpoint that you configure here.
 
-1. From a terminal/command prompt, run `idf.py menuconfig`. This assumes the ESP-IDF environment is exported-- i.e. that export.bat/export.sh, which can be found under the ESP-IDF directory, has been run, or that you are using the ESP-IDF command prompt/terminal. For Visual Studio (VS) Code users who are using the Espressif IDF extension, do ->View->Command Palette->Search for `ESP-IDF: SDK Configuration editor (menuconfig)` and select the command. The `SDK Configuration editor` window should pop up after a moment.
-   (Note: If running menuconfig from within a VS Code command prompt, 'j' and 'k' may have to be used in place of the 'up' and 'down' arrow keys. Alternately, one can use a command prompt/terminal outside of the VS Code editor).

 2. Select `Featured FreeRTOS IoT Integration` from the menu.
 3. Set `Endpoint for MQTT Broker to use` to your **AWS device Endpoint**.
 4. Set `Port for MQTT Broker to use` to `8883`.
