Matt Trentini’s take on #CircuitPython2019 #CircuitPython #Adafruit Adafruit
Matt Trentini posts thoughts on CircuitPython in 2019.
The focus on fostering an inclusive, welcoming community has been a tremendous success. New users are treated with respect, patience and courtesy. Adafruit have fostered a wonderful environment!
Documentation is excellent. Tutorials and reference documentation is thorough and well written.
Excluding a device with network connectivity, the CircuitPython hardware has been excellent! Not cheap but fantastic quality and generally worth the extra cost.
The library bundle is great, very thorough. Easy to get started with a large number of peripherals. Though I’ve found the quality of implementation of each library varies quite a lot.
The Python for Microcontrollers newsletter is a terrific resource. Please keep it up!
Included are thoughts in the following areas:
- Improved compatibility with MicroPython
- displayio
- LoRa support
- Video content
- Network connected devices
- Small devices
- RISC-V and FPGA’s
