Raspberry Pi Pico and RP2040 Microcontroller
I got some hands-on time with the Pico and made a video for it [1], with a tiny project I decided to try out with MicroPython.<p>It was the first time I'd ever tried MicroPython, and I have to say I'm a huge fan. As a dev who came from PHP/Javascript into Java and Python (heh, not quite the same thing but that's how life was), I find MicroPython a lot more intuitive than the Arduino language or raw C.<p>I also learned that Adafruit maintains their own flavor, CircuitPython [2].<p>Definitely worth trying out if you haven't, and know any Python!<p>[1] <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUCgYXF01Do" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUCgYXF01Do</a><p>[2] <a href="https://circuitpython.org" rel="nofollow">https://circuitpython.org</a>
