Great effort. Could you explain why I should use Docker though, instead of just installing the tool-chain once say on my linux machine?

That firmware is from last year and doesn't include any of the huge work that has been done since, especially the kickstarter stuff. I would strongly suggest to visit the ESP8266 section of this forum and see how to compile your own firmware, and use that. Having said that, "help()" is not implemen...

Hello all, I just started using micropython. I used the pre-compiled firmware from Adafruit (available here: https://learn.adafruit.com/building-and-running-micropython-on-the-esp8266/build-firmware ) and flashed it onto a ESP-01 board using ESP8266Flasher.exe for Windows. This worked fine. I use Co...

I don't know much about terms like these. But could a...

Thanks. I see that they have quite a few boards supported there, but no esp8266. Is there no particular interest in the micropython community for esp8266?

Hello,
I want to try out micropython on my esp8266 module. I found a pre-compiled firmware from Adafruit, which is from mid-2015. I was wondering if there's a permanent place where someone hosts the latest (stable) pre-compiled micropython firmware for esp8266?

Thanks.
