Thonny - Boot ESP32 into Python without USB?

Post by timg11 » Wed May 05, 2021 8:42 pm

I'm trying Thonny as an IDE for ESP32 development. It works great for editing and running interactively with F5.

uPyCraft has some capabilities to manage boot.py and main.py on the ESP32 board to enable booting into a program without USB attached.

What is the comparable process for loading and maintaining boot.py and main.py with Thonny?

In Thonny you can "Save" or "Save as" your script onto your ESP as main.py or boot.py

You may also want to open the file browser (View => Files), which shows you both local files and the files on the device.
