Description

MicroPython with the ESP32 is a programming training course for the ESP32 microcontroller with the Micro Python, published by Udemy Academy. MicroPython is a high-level Python-based programming language designed for programming microcontrollers and embedded systems with limited resources. Micro Python inherits the syntax and properties of Python version 3 programming language and is very similar to raw Python. Python 3 is a high-level, multi-purpose programming language used in many industries such as computer game development, the Internet of Things, data science, automation, and more. It is very easy to learn this language and there are many educational resources for it. ESP32 is a powerful yet inexpensive microcontroller offered by Espresif.

The ESP32 microcontroller is equipped with a variety of features despite its very low price, the most important of which are the dual-core processor, RAM and flash memory, wireless and wired communication systems, input and output pins, and … Cited. This microcontroller is quite flexible and the user can program it with different languages and frameworks such as Arduino IDE and Micro Python. In this training course, you will connect a number of tools and accessories such as electric motors and digital screens to the ESP32 board and learn how to work with them.

MicroPython with the ESP32 Content

MicroPython with the ESP32 Prerequisites

You have basic understanding of electronics. You are comfortable with assembling simple circuits on a breadboard, and you understand simple concepts like pull-up resistors and voltage dividers.

You have a basic understanding of microcontrollers. For example, you know what is a GPIO, the I2C or SPI interfaces and PWM. You understand that if you connect a 3.3V device to a 5V power source, you will damage the device.

You are familiar with related concepts, such as the Internet Of Things (which features in one of the course sections).

You are comfortable with at least one programming language and programming tool. It doesn’t matter which ones, as all modern languages and programming share the same basics.

You have a growth mindset, and you are willing to work hard in order to learn.

If you feel that you don’t tick one of these boxes, consider doing one of my introductory Arduino and Electronics courses first.
