Long time no seen. I'm impressed! You improved ya channel, and listen to us. ( No noise music, which was btw good music )
Good job, keep it up! Even old rabbits can learn a thing or 2!

Sorry if it's of topic, I just wanted to say that. ❤

Hi, from Boston! Looks like an excellent topic. I will surely b watching!

Thanks, Kevin, great introduction to GPIO. I enjoyed your previous introduction to micropython and am eager to see how you tie everything together.

I look forward to the rest of the GPIO series.

Kevin, GREAT video. Really enjoyed it. Keep them coming

I'll be getting Pi Pico soon, it'll be nice to play along and learn more about Micropython. I have a bucketful of projects I'd like to try.

These are great boards and the support is similar to other RPI products. Thank you for this beginners guide. I still learnt something.

Just getting into Picos. I have [rogrammed one to monitor the levels in my vans water tanks, but was wondering, can this one pic control leds attached to a rasberry pi 3b to display the levels in the tanks. I can do it with pigpio on pis but its not compatible with picos. (would also make another good tutorial)

The more I watch the more I learn. Thanks for the great tutorials.

i like your videos and you sound like you used GPT for your intro 🙂 .

Interesting overview. I didn't catch anywhere you mentioned further resources. In your description I know but not everyone looks there without prompting. Sure not enough info in the video to get a person up an running.

Hi Kevin. Thanks for your videos. I have a question about the use of MicroPython vs CircuitPython & Arduino (C++). I've used them all but am wondering if you have any info to share on why you would choose one over the other. The biggest drawback for CircuitPython seems to be the lack of a direct ability to handle interrupts (though it does have a limited asyncio library that can give you some options). CircuitPython does have a great set of libraries for Adafruit products which is helpful. Obviously there's a speed issue when using Python since it's interpreted vs compiled. Why do you use MicroPython and would you use any of the others? If so, what factors would make you look at another programming option? Thanks for any info you can share.
