  @bkdroid13 do you have any friends that already use Linux? If that's the case, chosing a distribution that they are familiar with might be the best, since they will be able to help you get going.

  DO NOT click on the link in the post by Vellin_Boute, it is most certainly an attempt to hack your router...

  @gjhannam23 You forgot to say something about your power requierement, and for IoT it's something very important. For doing something similar i will use BLE-Mesh, the device role will be "mesh gateway", with nrf52 chip power consumption will be around 6mA permanently. Doing multirole (master and device/beacon) while have the same power consumption byt cost more ram in ble chip.

  Hi @mariolatronico, did you find a solution in the end? I have a similar problem but in the "sync_file_types": field of pymakr.conf

  @reidfo Thanx, clear to me now. And there are different micropythons ( board specific ), most differences hardware related. When you use libraries, you don't have to upload them immediately to the board, using the 'run' button. By "See the pycom docs" you mean docs.pycom.io I suppose. The problem I have ( and I also had with finding hardware info ), when starting with Google to find a topic, I am sometimes directed to other older documentation ( also by pycom ). So I sometimes get lost between the versions.

  @rohan123 Where did you find that string? It's not in the Micropython package.

  @jpaul Good to hear. Our tutorials don't cover auto-connect very well yet, we'll work on that!

  @martinnn Found the issue with your firmware updater. If you would want to update to a dev version, you need to download the development version of the firmware updater (here). They will release it as stable soon, but not until then, use this dev version.

  @nervencid With autoconnect to false, it indeed tries to connect to the address 192.168.4.1, so the output you posted is as expected. To connect you can either: connect to the devices wifi and klik connect again, or: change the auto_connect setting to true, or: set the address setting to the correct comport (you can find it using the 'list serialports' command)

  Hi, We dont have any official support for debugging on Visual Studio. I suspect ptvsd also has significant native functionality to linux/windows and wont be easily ported to micropython either. Sorry I cant be more help

  Hi @John-Baird I hope you (and I) find a satisfying environment to work with these devices. Another project I've come across since then is balena (which used to be called resin) https://www.balena.io/ It's a very cool project, with almost everything open source and which can be self hosted. I talked about my use case on their forum https://forums.balena.io/t/edge-node-manager-for-wipy-micropython/2549 and someone replied with this https://github.com/Bucknalla/resin-pycom-ota project which I haven't had the time yet to try out. The idea is that you have a device that acts as and "edge manager", that device runs balena and whenever you upload new code (git commit & push) the edge device will update your pycom devices.

  when you click run just the single file your editing it sent to the board its literally as if you typed each line into the Repl. this is fine if its just your main.py script. but when libs need updating they dont get sent as you have discovered. The reason for the reset being required is to force micropython to reload its previously loaded and cached copies of libraries There are work arounds for hot reloading code, but its way easier to just reset the board during development

  @gmedlicott it's not True by default, because older firmware doesn't support it. We have documentation for pymakr settings here
