Re: can't upload code to esp32cam via espcam32-mb

Hi, for me it worked to access the repl via the esp-cam-mb. And I can also flash code via the pyboard tool. https://github.com/micropython/micropython/blob/master/tools/pyboard.py Maybe you can try the pyboard tool to flash software. There is a similar thread here: https://forum.micropython.org/view...

Re: ESP32-CAM-MB + Development Board CH340G

Variables delcared in boot.py are available inside main.py.

So you can just access "sd".

The same goes for modules imported in boot.py are already imported when main.py executes.
Thanks for that. I will try it out.

Re: What the best IDE for ESP32 micro python developing ?

Hi, I use VSCode to develop micropython applications. On top of that I use the micropy-cli which installs the stubs for micropython (https://github.com/BradenM/micropy-cli) The stubs are useful as the Pylance language server won't complain if e.g. you `import esp32` and all the functions and constan...

Re: Micropython support and commercial use

Hi, thanks for asking that question. I am in a similar position where I would like to launch a small commercial product and decided to use micropython. I am not an expert embedded developer but have worked with python for over 5 years. The availability of micropython on the esp32 has helped me a lot...
