This device is a tool for programming your own microcontroller routines and functions using Python. This requires previous experience in Python to be used out-of-the-box immediately. But even if you dont know Python, this is a great place to start!
Flashing firmwares can be a hassle, and this product removes that step so you can get right to the Python coding!
Please visit the MicroPython homepage for complete documentation on the use of MicroPython.
MicroPython is a full Python compiler and runtime that runs on the bare-metal. You get an interactive prompt (the REPL) to execute commands immediately, along with the ability to run and import scripts from the built-in filesystem. The REPL has history, tab completion, auto-indent, and paste mode for a great user experience.
MicroPython strives to be as compatible as possible with normal Python (known as CPython) so that if you know Python, you already know MicroPython. On the other hand, the more you learn about MicroPython, the better you become at Python.
