Windows 7 64bit Arduino IDE 1.8.10 ESP8266 Platform 2.7.0 (via git) LittleFS plugin 2.6.0

IDE does not find the littlefs upload tool, it never appears in the IDE Tools menu.

It does find the spiffs tool, which is installed in the same directory (~/Documents/Arduino/tools/ESP8266FS/tool). I can install/delete the spiffs tool and it comes and goes in the IDE, so I'm sure I'm placing them in the proper place. Both have the same permissions.

I did run get.py from inside ~/Documents/Arduino/hardware/esp8266com/esp8266/tools, but I don't think that has anything to do with the plugin not being found.

You need to install the plug in manually, like the spiffs uploader. The readme explanation the proper spot to install.

NM. I figured it out - needs to be in it's own path, no with the spiffs uploader.
