For what it is worth, pfalcon is a really incredible developer. I&#x27;ve built and ran micropython on one of my several ESP8622s and found the experience quite lacking.<p>Being a contributor of <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;home-assistant.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;home-assistant.io&#x2F;</a>, I wanted to do a series of blog posts similar to balloob&#x27;s on using the ESP for small home automation things ala:
<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;home-assistant.io&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2015&#x2F;10&#x2F;11&#x2F;measure-temperature-with-esp8266-and-report-to-mqtt&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;home-assistant.io&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2015&#x2F;10&#x2F;11&#x2F;measure-temperatur...</a><p>but exclusively with micropython. Funding this will allow this vision to become a reality.
