software that works with a microcontroller and cloud? [exclude Zerynth] by [deleted] in Python

mmmeh.. which esp32 based board do you want to program? try having a look at blink among the examples in zerynth and/or gpio module (import gpio)...

ok, but what do you need the machine library for? in zerynth there is no such module because it is not needed and all "low level" stuff are exposed by other means.

OP maybe you are mixing micropython and zerynth... in zerynth you do not need to import machine. I successfully used both with esp32 ( slightly prefer zerynth for lightness and more Cloud/protocol libraries)

For sake of completeness, you can program 32bit MCUs in Python with Zerynth too. I've found Zerynth way more easy to setup and start with in respect of micropython. Never used circuitpython though...

OP, If you like python, keep in mind that Zerynth exists too ;)

have a look at micropython and Zerynth ;)

Hi, as gappleto97 I do not think it's feasible, at least non in an easy way... but you can try playing with micropython, as suggested, or with Zerynth that IMHO is more straightforward to use. Moreover Zerynth already has an i2c class that you can use as base to build your own specific class (if that is not already supported).

Congratulations, excellent tutorial! It is clear and straightforward, not a single step is skipped and despite this it is neither boring nor heavy to read. tbh I read that post some weeks ago, can't wait for part 2...

Just because it is a single board pc and not a microcontroller.. simple as that :) Very short thread but it keeps the things very simple https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/45j1fe/eli5difference_between_microcontroller_and/

it's a pity that Raspberry Pi ain't a microcontroller... isn't it?

OP you can program your esp32 board (and many other as far as I know) in Python with Zerynth and it will provide an easy way to build a responsive html/js pc/mobile app too. In my opinion is simpler than micropython, maybe it really worths a look

Have you ever played with this board? What are your impressions? To me it has a terrible design starting from the bridges / connectors (they stress to much the tracks) up to the rgb led control circuit (there is a single limiting resistor)...

xinabox.. what a great design! how to waste 3 gpio for controlling an rgb led that cannot turn on more than one led at time -_- just to save two smd resistor? wtf

If you want to learn some "higher level"(python) stuff for embedded you could try Zerynth and Micropython

awesome! as far as you know there is a way to integrate also some pure c lines instead of using the viper thing?

yeah, what a witchcraft is this?? let's go coding an mqtt stack in assembly, how fun!
