Awesome MicroPython

MicroPython is a lean and efficient implementation of the Python 3 programming language that includes a small subset of the Python standard library and is optimised to run on microcontrollers and in constrained environments.

A curated list of awesome MicroPython libraries, frameworks, software and resources.

awesome-micropython's Issues

Recurso propuesto: MicroPython Robot Kit

Kerbi propone añadir el siguiente recurso:

• MicroPython Robot Kit - Project which aimed to creating small robot which giving possibilities to learning for robotics and designing cooperative robotic systems(swarm robotics) .

He encontrado este proyecto en Hackaday.io y me parece fantástico. En cuanto tenga tiempo disponible y recursos para adquirir algunas piezas más, me gustaría ponerlo en práctica. Llevo tiempo queriendo darle vueltas al uso de MicroPython en robótica. Creo que sería interesante que lo tengamos en la lista porque MicroPython + Robótica es algo de lo que no he encontrado mucho.

Recurso propuesto: micropython-microbit-kitronik-robotics

ivanhercaz propone añadir el siguiente recurso:

• micropython-microbit-kitronik-robotics - Example code for the Kitronik All-in-one Robotics Board.

He encontrado este recurso, similar al anterior que he compartido, pero este es específico el kit de robótica de Kitronik, que funciona con una BBC micro:bit. Esta placa también me parece interesante y creo que al menos con los ejemplos se pueden obtener nociones de cómo programar en MicroPython para realizar robots.

¿Desplegamos nuestra propia awesome-micropython?

Este repositorio es una bifurcación de mcauser/awesome-micropython. Ese repositorio genera con MkDocs una página de GitHub (con su propio dominio) y he pensado que quizás deberíamos tener nuestra propia página por algunas razones:

• A lo mejor el autor de la lista no quiere añadir o no está de acuerdo con añadir alguno de los recursos que proponemos en esta bifucarción (no se ha dado el caso).
• A lo mejor el autor deja de mantener esa lista.
• Mantendríamos una página web que siempre tenga nuestras propuestas, por lo que las propuestas que le hagamos al autor principal en realidad serán secundarias.

¿Qué opinan? Esta issue es similar a makersGC/upython#2, y quizás podríamos plantearnos las mismas preguntas, aunque en este caso es más sencillo ya que solo renderizamos una página (README.md).
