With this course, you will learn how to use MicroPython with the ESP32 microcontroller.
MicroPython is a high-level programming language specifically designed for microcontrollers and resource-limited embedded devices.
Who is this course for?
I have created this course for three types of students:
- If you are familiar with Python, you will find that MicroPython looks, feels, and works like regular Python. This course will help you get started quickly, and help you out with the peculiarities of using Python as MicroPython operating on the ESP32 hardware.
- If you have little programming experience, MicroPython is a perfect option for learning how to program hardware. This course will help you learn enough MicroPython to be able to write programs that run on the ESP32 microcontroller.
- If you have experience in programming the ESP32 with the Arduino IDE and language, but what to check out MicroPython, this course will help you do that.
What is MicroPython?
MicroPython is a programming language that borrows the syntax and language attributes of Python 3.
Python 3 is a powerful high-level general-purpose language that is designed to be easy to learn and use. It is extremely popular, and among the top-5 most widely used programming languages. As a result, has an extensive set of learning resources, excellent documentation, and code libraries that cover an amazing breadth of applications.
From gaming to the Internet of Things, from data science to industrial automation, anything that can be programmed in Python.
MicroPython was modelled after Python to reduce the barrier to entry for people that want to write programs for microcontrollers or embedded devices that have limited resources.
