I am mostly a hardware guy who tinkers about with software. I love python for prototyping stuff and lately I've been playing with micropython on an old NodeMCU board I had lurking in a drawer. I do a bit of freelance board design and prototyping and I'm on the look out for some projects which I can publish to show off my skills, I thought something that runs micropython could be a neat way to do that. I also do 3D mechanical design and 3D printing so integrating boards into cases and mounts can be part of it too

So has anyone made something cool that would look even better on a dedicated board? I'll open source the design and I'm happy to assemble and send a couple out to anyone who either gives me a great idea for a project or helps me get the software to work

As a first idea there don't seem to be any decent TFT LCD boards for the ESP32 (Ive seen a couple but they aren't very pretty) so I'm considering making a neat little board that takes an ESP32 an SPI LCD and an SD card. Could be a nice platform for weather stations, photo frames, IOT data loggers etc.
Any other ideas, fire away!
