Maybe you can get some inspiration by looking at David work on Bitio :

I made something working for the micro bit
I've published it there :

If it's better, I can push a PR to Radomir's repository

It works as I described for Wemos, no problem For the micro:bit, I first had to discover the trick to add a library : flash the code, wait for the whole error message to scroll the micro:bit leds, then use the Files menu of Mu Editor. But as I still got an import error, I tried to flash the whole li...

I had several issues here. One was the way to call SPI because I mixed doc from a lib for microbit and one from adafruit (but from deshipu ion the end ;) ) I used the library : https://github.com/adafruit/micropython-adafruit-max7219 That I needed to edit to replace low() and high() calls with off()...

As soon as I can flash a micro:bit I'll give a try. In the meantime, I tried with a Wemos D1 Pro flashed with micropython. I got the following result when I try to get the Spi part : >>> import max7219 >>> from machine import Pin, SPI >>> spi = SPI(10000000, miso=Pin(12), mosi=Pin(13), sck=Pin(14)) ...

I received mine yesterday
I also have compiled the simulator and a local firmware and will try to flash it.
Next step is to see if something can be done to have communication through USB

A new calculator brand just appeared and they have Micropython embedded : Numworks For the moment, it looks minimal but as they share everything from hardware schematics to code, it will be interesting to follow their progress. The code is here in Github . The cover and plastic parts here Hardware, ...

Looks like support is coming : https://github.com/espressif/esptool/is ... 1066578250

Oh... you mean the micro:bit is not the first implementation of the reference design?
You made it crystal clear.

I don't have enough knowledge in that area, but on the micro:bit community Slack, a discussion just said all files are here. Could you join the discussion on Slack or just explain me what is missing in your opinion? I think it's important because if this little board failed to be truly opened it won...
