A collection of code samples, unofficial FAQ, and index to supported modules for MicroPython development.
micropython-samples is a GitHub repository containing a wide array of code examples, hardware drivers, essays, and an index to other supported MicroPython modules. It serves as both a learning resource and a practical toolkit for developers working with MicroPython on embedded platforms like Pyboard and ESP32. The project addresses common programming challenges, from low-level hardware interfacing to asynchronous networking.
MicroPython developers, hobbyists, and engineers building embedded systems who need reliable code samples, hardware drivers, and best practices for platforms like Pyboard, ESP32, and RP2040.
It provides a curated, unofficial FAQ and a vast collection of tested MicroPython code, saving developers time by offering ready-to-use solutions and deep insights into MicroPython's nuances that aren't always covered in official documentation.
Assorted code ideas, unofficial MP FAQ, plus index to my other repositories.
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Offers ready-to-use examples for common embedded tasks like mutex handling, watchdog timers, and rotary encoder interfacing, saving development time and providing proven solutions.
Includes detailed pinouts, drivers, and notes for platforms like ESP32 and Pyboard D, complementing official documentation with hard-to-find information.
Provides tutorials on topics such as resilient WiFi coding and serialization libraries, offering best practices and insights that go beyond basic code snippets.
Acts as a gateway to fully documented and supported external modules for asyncio, displays, and communications, helping users find reliable resources quickly.
The author states that only egregious bugs are fixed and feature requests may not be accepted, making it unreliable for projects needing active development or new features.
Many samples and drivers are specific to Pyboard variants, limiting immediate usefulness for other MicroPython boards without adaptation, which can add overhead.
Some code is described as 'pointers' rather than complete solutions, requiring developers to fill in gaps or modify code for their specific use cases.
