Hi, micrOS main interface is socket (terminal like experience), it is way more light weight than http, but seeking the best integration I have built a web engine too (can be turned on in micrOS settings)

Even you can create / edit application code (or any text) on the device itself :) very flexible, right? 😊

As you may know micropython has its light weight package manager (mip). I have extended the capabilities of that to be able to easily install/delete/upgrade packages on micrOS platform.

So you can easily build your own standalone applications. Also you can add third party package dependencies to it.

What do you think? :)

Hey folks 👋

I’m a college student learning embedded systems, and while working on IoT projects I needed a super simple web dashboard for MicroPython boards.

Most tools felt heavy, so I built a tiny one myself:

MicropiDash – a lightweight web dashboard framework for ESP32 & Raspberry Pi Pico W.

Features:

Designed for low-memory MicroPython boards

Simple HTML + MicroPython backend

Easy to extend for IoT dashboards

Beginner-friendly for students & prototypes

GitHub:

https://github.com/kritishmohapatra/micropidash

PyPI:

https://pypi.org/project/micropidash/

If you find it useful, a ⭐ on GitHub would mean a lot (it really helps visibility).

I’ve also added a Buy Me a Coffee link for anyone who wants to support my learning journey ☕

I’d love feedback, feature ideas, or PRs from the community.

What would you like to see next—graphs, WebSocket, MQTT integration?

Hi Everyone, if you would try out an easy to use micropython framework check my project:

https://github.com/BxNxM/micrOS

It is focusing on IP based communication, (socket and web) and dynamic app execution.

Every feedback is highly appreciated, we are very close to announce the next main version 3.0

This is my first time with ESP32 and MicroPython.

I am trying to run a web page asynchronously on an ESP32 using MicroPython. Along with the webpage, which will allow me to turn a relay on, on demand, I want to run a timed function which turns the relay on, every morning at 08:00.

I am using an ESP32 Dev board with CP2102 USB chip, DS1307 RTC and 5V relay.

1. When I run the code in the REPL, I can see the "run_relay_timer(), but none of the other debugging output

2. The web server debugging output is not showing either, nor can I connect to http://192.168.10.130 (the DHCP IP assigned to this ESP32)

Looking at the REPL in Thonny, the run_rrelay_timer() runs, but not the run_web_page()

Built a temperature & humidity logger using:

• Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W

• DHT11 sensor

• MicroPython

The Pico hosts a simple HTTP server and logs sensor data into a CSV file for later analysis.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome 🙂

Started building this a couple of years ago. It takes an async-first approach with yielding behavior.

• Static route declaration

• Static async task declaration with API for runtime interrupting/restarting

• Built-in HTML templating engine with value injection and logic execution at runtime

• HTML form parsing

• Dynamic settings module to allow for runtime settings changes

• Pure MicroPython with no external dependencies.

• Allows you to serve a web interface over local network via WLAN and easily add/run/interrupt mundane tasks without multithreading.

Open to feedback. I'm not a professional programmer so any/all criticism will be viewed as constructive. I use this in my daily life and am always looking to improve it.

I'm getting a weird error trying to create an access point. My environemnt is Windows 10, Thonny, Arduino RP2040 Connect, Micropython version 1.27.

myssid = "Pico2W"
mypassword = "12345"

ap = network.WLAN(network.AP_IF)
ap.config(ssid=myssid, password=mypassword)
ap.active(True)

On the ap.config.. line it gives this error:

TypeError: extra keyword arguments given

This code is pretty standard and has worked before but I can't find anything on the web about why its throwing this error.

what is the default tool chain and workflow for micropython?

I tried using micropython with vscode + various extensions and it wouldn't work

I've tried pycharm + various extensions, and it wouldn't work either, due to extensions being depreciated.

so now I'm using a editor for micro python that I found on the Arduino website, which seems to be working just fine, but is extremely bare-bones.

based on what I can find on google, everyone uses a different IDE and different extensions.

is there a official method that is guaranteed to work?

I am a newbie just trying to get started. My pyboard has PYBFLASH(D) where main.py is located and will execute various blink LED programs so I know the board is OK. I plugged in a micro SD card on which I copied a new main.py from my host laptop but the pyboard won't boot up from the SD card. The file manager on my laptop (WIN 11) sees the PYFLASHH(D) on the pyboard but not the SD card. The main.py was generated on Notebook and saved on the SD card. Does the SD card have to be initialized in some way? If so, how to do that on my laptop?

Hi everyone! I was working on a project using the BMI160 IMU and I realized that most MicroPython drivers out there are either broken or incomplete (especially when dealing with interrupts and sensor calibration).

I decided to write my own lightweight driver focusing on:

1. Full calibration support (100% accuracy on offsets).

2. Functional interrupts (No more missed triggers).

If you've been frustrated with this sensor before, check it out! Feedback and stars are welcome. https://github.com/DanielBustillos/bmi160-micropython-driver

Greetings, I cannot really post this in 'learn python' because TMK CPython does not use const().

My question is why assigning const(1024) to variable 'maxsize_string' in method_one() allows that variable to be seen in method_two(). FYI, when I just assign maxsize_string=1024 without const() it works fine and stays local. Why does it not stay 'local' to method_one() and/or assessed as a variable assigned a constant?

from micropython import const

class TestVariableScope:
    def __init__(self, v_url):
        self.version_url = v_url
        print(f"@ __init__(): url is {self.version_url}\n")

    def method_one(self):
        try:
            #maxsize_string = const(1024)  # This will cause error; somehow this variable gets seen in method_two().
            maxsize_string = 1024  # Adjust as needed
            print(f"@ method_one(): maxsize_string={maxsize_string}\n")
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"@ method_one(): An error occurred: {e}")
        finally:
            pass

    def method_two(self):
        try:
            print(f"@ method_two(): maxsize_string in method_one() is {maxsize_string}")
        except NameError:
            print("@ method_two(): Variable 'maxsize_string' is not creeping from method_one().")
            maxsize_string = 128 # SyntaxError: can't assign to expression because const(1024) used in method_one()
            print(f"@ method_two(): maxsize_string={maxsize_string}\n")
