share code

[Ferretproof]

Hi Guys,

Just want to let you know I am very happy with the Wipy! Looks good and even I got it to work!
(Eventually, as my editor on Mac (TextEdit) had the option "automatically mess up all your quotes" switched on. Did not notice that at first. Eventually someone of your team found that problem and good old VI came to the resque! Only costed me a few hours..! )

Anyway, I'd like to share some of my findings with you (WiPy users). I have some (very simple) code and a "howto" I'd like to share. Maybe it can help others. I hope other people feel the same.
Seems most (all) of the items are questions... So is this forum a good place? Or perhaps a wiki?

Hey!

The project does have a community wiki http://wiki.micropython.org/Home, so sharing some tutorials and how-to's over there might be a good idea, there's not much structure to it at the moment but I'm sure it will grow as more people get their hands on the board. Code snippets can also go there if they are related to your tutorials, or perhaps you might want to create your own sandbox github repository and link your examples in the wiki pages. You can also keep your code in separate repositories if they're bigger than one or two files and create new threads on the forum to show off your amazing work! For all the questions, forum is probably the best!

For reporting issues and making suggestions to improve the project, you can head over to the issues page on https://github.com/micropython/micropython/issues. But please familiarise yourself with the general guidelines on what micropython is trying to achieve compared to cpython here: https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... ifferences. If you feel like contributing, a good place to start is https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... Guidelines.

Hope this helps!

Hi Ferretproof,

So glad to hear that you are having fun with your WiPy! Any help is very much welcome . We are building the docs in reST format using Sphinx. Take a look here: https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... /docs/wipy
We need a tutorials folder like the pyboard: https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... d/tutorial

Best way to proceed would be to clone the micropython repo, write some tutorials, and then submit a pull request. I'll review it and merge when it's all good. What do you think?

Hi,

Sounds good, although I might be a bit too enthousiastic here!
I am no python expert at all (last program I wrote was in a previous life) but who knows... I might learn a thing or two that is worth documenting
