Lightweight implementations of both logger (well, logging) and functools can be found in micropython-lib. They may be enough?

Though having an asyncio version of schedule would be very cool...

First of all, welcome! Anyone keen to contribute is is welcome here. :) A few notes about getting started... It can be a steep learning curve for a beginner; if you have C experience and are looking to work on the internals of MicroPython I would suggest looking over the source code perhaps while sk...

I just deployed the latest GENERIC-SPIRAM (it shouldn't matter which but, specifically: c2317a3a8 ) to my TTGO-WATCH 2020 and it worked as expected. Now to just make it do something useful! :) The watch is large but not ridiculous (like the older TTGO watch) and it seems better built than I'd expect...

Yes, it's currently an issue with the (various) Neopixel implementations for MicroPython on the ESP32. See State of Neopixels for esp32 in May 2020? for more details.

Take a look at micropython-stubber and micropy-cli. Should do what you're after?

Ahh ok the problem with ESP32 using RMT for large number of neopixels has to do with the fact that RMT uses 32bits of RAM for every bit of data that is sent so for large number of Neopixels you can't setup the whole transmission due to the amount of RAM required so your trying to update RAM mid tra...

There's also Andrew Leech's MicroPython CI repo that builds almost all of the MicroPython binaries.

The latest pipeline has ~70 STM32 builds.

A question for you Mattyt. I believe the reason RMT is unable to maintain perfect timings for Neopixels is due to RTOS getting in they way. I'm not aware of timing issues when using RMT. It's dedicated hardware so interrupts to the micro shouldn't interfere. I'm glossing over some complexity here; ...

Unfortunately, I believe that is the current state of affairs.

I went into a little more detail in the March-April News Roundup. There are a few promising ways we can resolve the issue but, right now, I don't know of any great way to drive that many pixels with the ESP32 from MicroPython.

Just glad to hear it's working!
