CircuitPython and WiFi

Post by eat_sleep_code »

Are there plans for a board that can simultaneously run CircuitPython and WiFi?

Most of the great ideas I can think of require some sort of wireless internet connectivity.

I know the Pi Zero W is a Python-capable option, but it's footprint is a little large and it is too power hungry for some applications.

The Feather Huzzah ESP8266 board already runs CircuitPython and supports wifi. There are a few differences from the M0 boards, but the basic I/O (busio.I2C, etc.) is the same. If issues come up feel free to ask here or on the #circuitpython channel on https://adafru.it/discord, where a number of ESP8266 users hang out.
