Hi everybody,
I'm new on the forum and came because I'm a Python programmer and currently starting to program the ESP8266 chip.
I'm starting to use the native API's from espressif, but I really like Python and want to try MicroPython. I'm going to start a project and I want to start with the right language.
Micropython allows using the espressif API's? or can I do the same thing I do with espressif API's with python?
I hope your prompt response
PD: Sorry for my English

Re: ESP8266 API's
It would be easier if you could outline what you'd like to achieve. Then we could assess whether it's feasible with MicroPython and its libraries.
MicroPython provides a subset of standard Python and its libraries, plus additional libraries for accessing hardware etc. It runs on many different hardware platforms. So in preference to providing access to each vendor-specific API it aims to standardise hardware access so that (as far as possible) code is portable between platforms. See, for example, the machine library http://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/p ... chine.html.
