"MicroPython: The best bits!"

on YouTube ↗30m

" summary

MicroPython gives a live on-device REPL and real file system so iteration happens without rebuilds, and MP Remote mount lets a local VS Code repo act as the device drive for fast edit/test cycles. The package tool MIP installs libs (including from GitHub) onto constrained devices; MP build produces firmware via containers for many boards. Memory tracing with me info and an animation tool exposes allocations and leaks, asyncio keeps long-running apps interactive, and native/C modules plus lvgl bindings provide near‑C performance; it already runs in production medical devices.
