How to drive an LCD screen with micropython?
-
@Andy-Smith also, why use micropython on a Raspberry Pi when you can use full Python? Micropython is designed to run on more limited devices which don’t have the capabilities needed to run full Python.

@livius
Thanks for the suggestion, I will ask the question on the Raspberry Pi forum. -
@jcaron I see that the Raspberry Pi official website recommends using micropython to write, if python can also do it, I can also try it, but I searched the Internet to see the examples, even using python to write it also need to use the micropython library.
-
@Andy-Smith which raspberry pi model you use. Fod the Pico MicroPython is the right tool.
-
@robert-hh I do use a Raspberry Pi pico.
-
@Andy-Smith then this is the wrong forum. Please ask at forum.micropython.org. besides that, which interface has the LCD? Parallel, I2C or SPI?
-
@Andy-Smith There's a good beginners guide for the pico with an oled @ https://www.tomshardware.com/how-to/oled-display-raspberry-pi-pico
-
@robert-hh Sorry for the late reply, the screen uses the UART interface.

I am a new beginner, I have used Arduino and touch screen for some simple projects, now I want to port some projects to Raspberry Pi, I need to use micropython language, but I don't know much about it.
Hello. I am also here for the same question

@jack-austin This is the wrong forum for Raspberry Pi Pico and MicroPython. Better go to https://forum.micropython.org/
