The latest MicroPython firmware and Bluetooth
-
The latest MicroPython firmware is at 1.12 and it's compiled with Espressif IDF 4.X framework. This release added bluetooth support and many new functionalities. Given the official M5Stack MicroPython firmware hasn't been updated for about 18 months, is there a plan to update the build?

Uiflow firmware has been shifted to the main branch v1.12 for over a month now, and previously was based on v1.11 its been over a year since loboris fork was used in any uiflow firmware. Bluetooth is still experimental in micropython, you can follow the development thread here https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/4589

Thanks for the reply. I am referring to https://github.com/m5stack/M5Stack_MicroPython. Is there a plan to update this repo? I am currently using this firmware.

This is an old firmware, usually users would just use M5Burner to upgrade the firmware of their M5stack devices, you can download the firmware files from one of our main programmers github if you prefer to use esptool to flash https://github.com/EeeeBin/UIFlow-Firmware/tree/beta

Got it, thanks @lukasmaximus. Is there a way to burn firmware with UiFlow with ONLY MicroPython and none of the other pre-installed modules or packages?
