@kevinkk525 Regarding hitting the limitations so quickly on the ESP8266 .... the ESP8266 is not the most powerfull device right? If running into limits, you can optimize by building your own firmware, do the frozen modules thing etc ... But, you can also select the PYBD and have a go with that? Woul...

This response takes me a bit by surprise. I'm sure there is more to it than this. I was under the impression that the name 'Micro' actually pointed to micro controllers, and not for example MicroHalonColliders. For many of the platforms (or field of applications) you are referring to, other Python p...

Yes, it does seem that CircuitPython does have that flavour ... but is that a well thought out choice of the MicroPython community? Build your own Firmware, or else you'd probably be better of with Adafruit products?

You would need to have the compile stack available to do so. Most developers don't have that or at least don't have experience with that. In fact, most python developers I know, simply use python and if they switch to something else for some project, they are happy if that could be some other high l...

What is considered to be the target audience for MicroPython? I'm thinking about the following categories: Category A) C developers who are also ideologic pythonistas and are interested in microcontrollers. Category B) Cheap people, who only want to work with <10$ MCU, and change the world that way....

Ok, I see. Although a good idea, it was not that original. Majority of the implementation is already done (reading damiens' comment), glueing it together in the proper way using the proper methods is the remaining part. My guess is that this issue is not done yet since it does not have suifficient p...

I can confirm: The ordering page works!

At a company digi they have the xbee cellular modem board. See: https://www.digi.com/resources/documentation/digidocs/90002219/90002219.htm#reference/r_compiled_files.htm Their doc describes a uos.compile() function that compiles .py files into .mpy files on the board itself. To me this sounds inter...

The idea of "giving back upstream" is good. The way to do that is by submitting pr's in the upstream repo's. The compatibility layer sounds nice, but any incompatiblity that exists is created by Adafruit per definition. That is were the incompatible code comes from. I simply cant stop this sense of ...
