CircuitPython

This section collects Raspberry Pi Pico tutorials that use CircuitPython instead of MicroPython.

Use this section when a project depends on:

  • CircuitPython libraries
  • the CircuitPython filesystem workflow
  • Adafruit ecosystem examples
  • USB drag-and-drop firmware setup

Why This Section Is Separate

Most of the NerdCave Pico content uses MicroPython. CircuitPython is similar, but the setup process, libraries, and workflow are different enough that it is better to keep them clearly separated.

That way, readers immediately know:

  • which firmware to install
  • which libraries to use
  • how code should be uploaded to the board

What You Will Find Here

This section is a good place for future tutorials such as:

  • CircuitPython getting started
  • displays
  • sensors
  • NeoPixels
  • HID projects
  • Adafruit library based builds
