Given the advent of CircuitPython I can envisage a situation where users come here for support. I can see three options. What does the team think is the best way to handle such queries?
- Direct them to Adafruit.
- Ask them to install MicroPython and try again.
- We install CircuitPython, learn the API, and do our best to support them.
The second option requires possibly novice users to re-code to our API. The third requires us to learn the CircuitPython API and either have two sets of hardware or regularly change firmware. Neither option strikes me as very satisfactory.
A similar situation arose with PyCom and a consensus emerged that it is in everyone's interest to direct people to their own support site.
This is not an attempt to "get at" Adafruit, a company I admire and whose products I use. It is simply a practical question.
