ESP32 or STM32: Which is better for IoT?

Question

I'm planning an IoT project but feeling confused about which microcontroller to choose. The ESP32 seems great for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, but I've heard STM32 excels in performance and flexibility. I'm unsure how they compare in terms of power consumption, library support, and ease of development. Could someone clarify these points to help me decide?

Each has its strengths—no need to choose sides. Use the ESP32 when you need wireless, the STM32 when you need control. They're affordable enough to keep both on hand for whatever the project demands.
