About-Micropython
What is MicroPython
MicroPython is a lean and efficient implementation of the Python 3 programming language.
MicroPython is "battery included" programming langage. It includes a subset of the Python standard library.
MicroPython is optimised to run on microcontrollers and in constrained environments.
MicroPython virtual machine is designed to gain access to underlying hardware (Pin, I2C, SPI, UART, etc).
MicroPython is packed full of advanced features such as an interactive prompt, arbitrary precision integers,
closures, list comprehension, generators, exception handling and more.
MicroPython aims to be as compatible with normal Python as possible. It allows the transfer of code with ease from the desktop to a microcontroller or embedded system.
Benefits of MicroPython
MicroPython is Python programming, so it is quite easy to learn.
MicroPython provides a familiar programming environment to Python developper.
MicroPython Use the same Python language and libraries to develop Hardware and IoT solution. It is a real benefit (one language to control them all all).
MicroPython is perfect solution to connect sensors and hardware device.
MicroPython benefits of 10 years old community made of makers, electronicians, developpers, etc.
MicroPython is battery included! It already integrates lots of common libraries. The community is also very active in offering support and libraries for feature and additional hardware.
MicroPython support many kind of connectivity from WiFi, Ethernet up to LoRa, LTE networks.
MicroPython can be easily integrated with other software and tools like MQTT, IoT plafeforms, Cloud solution.
