Can I program the T-watch 2021 using Python only? #12

Open Angelo904 opened 1 year ago

Angelo904 commented 1 year ago

I have recently purchased a T-watch 2021 and, since Circuit Python is the only language I am familiar with, I would like to find out if I can program it just using python, and what "kind" of python I would beed to use (can I use Circuitpython or it has to be Micropython?).

I looked around on this GitHub page and it seems that all the software available for the T-watch 2021 is in Arduino / C++

However I have read in several different places (including the Lilygo open smartwatch product page) that it can be programmed with pyhton.

Can anybody clarify whether it can actually be done and what I would need to do? Where can I find the appropriate python libraries/modules? Can I just write any python code on Platform IO and upload it to the board?

Also, I found the circuitpython SW for the t-watch 2020 here https://circuitpython.org/board/lilygo_twatch_2020_v3/ but I can’t tell whether it’s compatible also with t-watch 2021.

Thanks in advance! Angelo
