IDE for developing on multiple MicroPython boards concurrently

Post by ilium007 » Mon Apr 04, 2022 8:55 am

Looking for options for a MicroPython IDE that will allow me to connect to a REPL interface on two boards concurrently. I have tried PyMakr plugins for both Visual Code and Atom and both refuse to install on OSX 12.1. I am currently running two OSX iTerm windows each connected to the boards' REPL interface while having to edit and save files within the Atom application.

You can do it by running multiples instances of Thonny IDE.
You have to check option in general tab in option menu to do it

Maybe you would like to set each instance with a different theme to not get lost...
