@jhfoo yeah, but uiflow is so noisy with all kinds of bloat I don't need

Gotcha. I'd love to know if there will be a pure MicroPython firmware soon. UiFlow is great, but I'd stay away from all the preloaded stuff.

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?

Hmm, but this repo hasn't been updated: https://github.com/m5stack/M5Stack_MicroPython

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.

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?

The M5Stack official MicroPython firmware is still based on Loboris fork and it has not been updated for about 18 months. I'd love to know when the official MicroPython firmware is going to be updated from the main MicroPython release and Espress IDF 4.X firmware.
