 All right, Python on hardware time. I'm not going to say we have a Circuit Python day hangover, because there's a lot going on on Friday. But we're still kind of like, whoa, that was intense. So there was an unending day of things. But before we get to some of the highlights about that that we wanted to mention, Circuit Python 8 beta is out. And Lady Aida, not only is this poster, I think there's still some available. Yes. They gave us permission to use the expressive logo as part of it, because that's a big chunk of what we're talking about with Circuit Python 8. But what are some of the things? Do you have any favorite things? I'm going to say Wi-Fi workflow. The Wi-Fi workflow is the biggest thing. Express, we also ESP32 as a chip that is supported. We've supported the ESP32 S2 and S3 and like the C3. But really, for that original ESP32 natural flavor, we needed to have Wi-Fi workflow, or web workflow, so that, well, I call it web. But it's Wi-Fi workflow. And we have a web browser interface to it that basically allows you to upload files, to have file editing, to have a REPL access, because we don't have, we have USB CDC, but we don't have that mass storage for drag and drop. But we're hoping with the web interface, you can easily upload files. And it'll make it a lot easier for people to use ESP32 with Circuit Python. It's such an exciting, we have a couple boards. We're going to be adding more ESP32 boards. But folks out there, if you have, look in your box. You probably have some weirdo ESP32 chip module, breakout board, deaf board, submit a PR. And we will add support for your board, all the pins and the namings, and default hardware. If there's a screen, we can have the screen as a REPL, and it'll show the IP address when it connects. Wow, wouldn't that be fun? So it's definitely an invitation out there. Okay. One thing too, there's a new feature, a .env file. So you could put like all the Wi-Fi stuff in, instead of like a secrets file. I think that's neat, because if you feel like old school, and it was like, remember like window.ini files? Yeah. It's kind of like that. Yeah, it's apparently a standard, you know, a CPythonism that we're using. And we have a tutorial also how to get started with the ESP32. So if you're, you know, you can actually use, honestly, our feather definition. It'll probably work for a lot of boards, because a lot of people use the room module, but it's just the pin names might not be like, you know, LED. So if you think about it, what's the future with a lot of microcontrollers? Well, they're probably gonna be Bluetooth Wi-Fi. They'll probably do things with batteries and screens, things like e-ink. And they'll probably have a scripting language like Python. And that's why we have a circuit Python. And the .env stuff, you're gonna need to put things like Bluetooth values, names and stuff like that. You'll need to put Wi-Fi, passwords, credentials and so on. And so that's really powerful that you could do that just by plugging in, shows up, use B drive, could do that. And now you're doing this like, it's like a full on little computer on the internet. Okay. So circuit Python day, we're calling it a success. Thank you so much, the entire team, especially like a report to Catany Health coordinate a lot of it. So all the videos are on our YouTube. You can check out the circuit Python day introduction, celebrating code and community, circuit Python day panel discussion, the development sprint intro video, the circuit Python project build with maker Melissa, the special edition circuit Python theme show until, the circuit Python preview, the circuit Python day chat with Catany, Jeff and Dan, and for me guys, circuit Python day game jam stream. And then there was also an additional one reimagining IoT deployments with circuit Python and that was from Blues Wireless. So it was a day, you can watch all the stuff, all the videos are up and there's still more going on and we'll probably have, I think there's gonna be some like office hour sprints coming up that the team's doing. People love them, yeah. Yeah, Tim and Tetrick are doing. And then check out the rest of the newsletter. We have circuit Python target support. Yes, we're really excited, a lot of people wanted and thank you to Mark too for adding that PR. It was a community contribution, but it's really handy. You could check out the latest circuit Python show. Brent was interviewed there. And then just like the unending projects. I really like this stuff, this is kind of another thing. What is, is it from a movie or something? Yeah, it's from a little record. Okay, there's a little record. And then a scientific circuit Python, that was one of the talks, it was from Twitter. And then just, you know, unending projects and more all made. Talked about a really neat 3D printed case for this Raspberry Pi Pico step sequencer and program circuit Python is kind of amazing to see this project go from like a tweet, like sketch and then like real and then playing stuff and like look at it, like. That looks so cool. That's something you can make. And then you've got the OLED, he's got the little stripes that make it so 80s. Yeah, cool. And so join the fun.
