Modify for Raspberry Pi Pico? #39

Closed derekantrican closed 1 year ago

derekantrican commented 1 year ago

Is there a chance this project could be modified to work for the Raspberry Pi Pico? I don't really see why not (unless there's some missing feature of micro python that I'm not aware of). Mostly seems like a few concepts based on a "regular" raspberry pi & a linux system would have to be changed.

Yes, it might work assuming that the micro python libraries can support the neopixel libraries and that memory for loading the live weather data doesn't run into issues.

I'm a little busy at the moment, so I don't have enough time to tinker around to try it, but if someone wants to go try, feel free to.

@derekantrican did you succeed in porting the project to a Raspberry Pi Pico?

derekantrican commented 1 year ago

No, I haven't put any effort into this. I was just asking out of theory
