Re: RFM95W lorawan stack ?

You can find the originals from GitHub. Untainted by GPL and still BSD licensed.

State of micropython-lib?

After following MicroPython for a while, the habit seems to be developers to make forks instead of sending PRs. The situation gets quite confusing when there is x version of I2C drivers for y. Currently there seems to be similar situation with the standard library. There is the micropython/micropyth...

State of MicroPython universe (was: of micropython-lib?)

All these different forks and versions of MicroPython and libs is getting quite confusing.

M5Stack Kitchen Sink

To avoid hijacking other threads I post this here. I am working on a M5Stack Kitchen Sink project which can be used to jumpstart a MicroPython project with M5Stack development board. Code assumes you are using Loboris fork . Everything is still evolving but it will contain some abstractions and help...

Re: RFM95W lorawan stack ?

Pycom relicensed everything to GPL so it is unusable for many. What is interesting though that the original LoRa drives by Semtech seem to be BSD licensed.

Re: ILI9340/ILI9341 TFT Display

Added some basic documentation. I did not even know somebody had already found it :) Project is still evolving so BC breaks will happen. I only recently started coding Python (because of MicroPython) and haven't really found my coding style yet, so that might change too. In any case I don't want to ...

How did you achieve this feat? My M5 keeps on rebooting with every attempt to employ the esptool.
Edit: It seems to be a known hardware bug.
I never had any problems with mine. I do flash with relatively low 115200, maybe that is related?

Re: MicroPython on ESP32 with SPIRAM support

There is absolutely no original code in this file as it uses the wrapping to the esp-idf i2c API and standard MicroPython wrapping, so I'm not shure why the GNU GPL licensing was added. Advisory board making decisions? :) If I were writting it from scratch, it would look the same, it simply can't b...

Re: MicroPython on ESP32 with SPIRAM support

I would be especially vary about the Pycom code. Company is funded by investor money. Investor money means decisions made by a board. Board is more likely to send nastygrams. Good thing is not relicensing code to GPL is a license violation. License violation only means you must stop using the GPL li...

Re: How can I protect sensitive information?

Or is the problem that the M5Stack version of MicroPython firmware uploads the code stored in flash to the cloud without user consent even if you are not using the cloud editor to edit the code? Exactly. Uh, that does not sound good. I will install their firmware to peek around what is happening. I...
