If you're unfamiliar with how to supply power to the ESP32 and other components, you can find guidance in the following tutorial: How to Power ESP32.
#define BUTTON_PIN 16
#define BUZZER_PIN 21
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
pinMode(BUTTON_PIN, INPUT_PULLUP);
pinMode(BUZZER_PIN, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
int buttonState = digitalRead(BUTTON_PIN);
if (buttonState == LOW) {
Serial.println("The button is being pressed");
digitalWrite(BUZZER_PIN, HIGH);
}
else
if (buttonState == HIGH) {
Serial.println("The button is unpressed");
digitalWrite(BUZZER_PIN, LOW);
}
}
Do the wiring as above image.
Connect the ESP32 board to your PC via a micro USB cable
Open Arduino IDE on your PC.
Select the right ESP32 board (e.g. ESP32 Dev Module) and COM port.
Copy the above code and paste it to Arduino IDE.
Compile and upload code to ESP32 board by clicking Upload button on Arduino IDE
Press and keep pressing the button several seconds
Listen to piezo buzzer's sound
The above ESP32 code contains line-by-line explanation. Please read the comments in the code!

※ NOTE THAT:
The above code using delay() function. This blocks other code during playing melody. To avoid blocking other code, use the ezBuzzer library instead. This library is designed for buzzer to beep or play memody without blocking other code.
