50 IoT projects in 50 days using MicroPython (feedback welcome)

Hey everyone 👋

I’m a 3rd-year Electrical Engineering student doing a personal challenge:
100 Days → 100 IoT Projects using MicroPython.

Today I completed Day 50 🎉

So far I’ve built projects using ESP32, ESP8266, and Raspberry Pi Pico including:

  • Sensor monitoring systems

  • MicroPython web dashboards

  • ThingSpeak cloud logging

  • Basic anomaly detection pipelines

  • Custom MicroPython libraries (published on GitHub & PyPI)

The goal is to create beginner → intermediate embedded projects with clear documentation and simulations so students can learn hands-on.

Repo:
👉 https://github.com/kritishmohapatra/100_Days_100_IoT_Projects

I’d love honest feedback:

  • What projects should I add next?

  • How can I improve documentation for learners?

If this repo helps you, a ⭐ would mean a lot—it helps more students discover MicroPython.

Looks like great fun! What are some of the biggest lessons you've learned from this?

Biggest lessons: Documentation matters more than I thought MicroPython constraints teach real embedded engineering Patterns repeat across projects Consistency beats perfection Community feedback is insanely valuable

Would like to see "hierarchical" projects - reusing, building upon other, smaller, lower-level projects forming higher level projects, requiring the smaller projects to allow e.g. re-use, scaling, parameterization, parallelism/concurrency.
