So this just happened.... #Maker #SQUiXL #MicroPython #RabbitHole

MicroPython v1.25.0 has been released! github.com/micropython/... A *huge* update, particularly for the ROMFS feature, and the new Alif port. However, as with all MicroPython releases, there are hundreds of improvements and fixes. Such focus on refinement!

#17050 was just merged - which means that MicroPython now has a new port for the super interesting Alif Ensemble microcontrollers! Thanks to @openmv.io and Damien at MicroPython for the great work to pull this together! github.com/micropython/... alifsemi.com/products/ens...

There's a patch release for MicroPython, v1.24.1, out now: github.com/micropython/... Pre-built firmware downloads are already available: micropython.org/download/ Particularly useful for rp2 and ESP32 builds - and it's also a good idea to update mpremote: docs.micropython.org/en/latest/re...

The video of my "MicroPython: The Best Bits!" talk from the recent PyCon AU is now online: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVRD... Slides are also available: docs.google.com/presentation... As usual, PyCon AU was a great conf, thanks to the organisers and all the attendees! #MicroPython #PyConAU

1/6 🧵 I'm building what might be the smallest #opensource #spectrometer with an easy to use UI! I call it a pocket spectrometer. Combining #M5StickC (~$20) with AS7341 sensor (~$16). My goal? A complete spectrometer that is barely larger than a sample cuvette itself.

Slides for my upcoming #PyConAU talk, "MicroPython: The Best Bits!" are now available! docs.google.com/presentation... Hope to see you at 2:10pm! (And come grab a #MicroPython sticker!)

#PyConAU starts tomorrow! I'll be giving a talk - MicroPython: The Best Bits! - on Saturday at 2:10pm. If you're coming along, please say hi! To all the speakers: Good luck, you've got this! To all the attendees, enjoy! It's a fantastic conference. 😊 2024.pycon.org.au/program/HFXF...
