What platforms does Pycom boards support?
-
Hi,
I'm trying to gain an understanding of what platforms can be used with the Pycom modules, and what it means for development.-
Pymakr:
The pycom-supported option seems to be pymakr plugin for Visual Studio / Atom / etc. That's just micropython, and you have to load the micropython firmware onto the pycom module first. -
Native ESP-IDF
Since it's basically an ESP32, can any of the Pycom be programmed the "native way" with the ESP-IDF? -
MongooseOS
I did a search and found some mention of MongooseOS working with Pycom boards, but not much details. -
Arduino?
Basically, should any ESP32 compatible platform also work with the Pycom boards? There are aspects of other ESP32 platforms that have examples that you might need (for example, working with a specific peripheral on the ESP-IDF for which there are no libraries in micropython). It would be nice to be able to take advantage of those libraries.

@pynew ....support Arduino too
-
- true - standard pycom firmware and you can play
- yes but for any other board then wipy 2 or 3 you need more work to support e.g. lora, sigfox ..
- not used yet self

but for me it is the best point 1Ex ;-)
Point 1 but with custom firmware - we have source code. Then we can implement any code in C and also with python. You can e.g. migrate arduino native C libs and use.
