I've been looking into getting an M5 to make a watering irrigation system for my Vegetable Growing this year and posting a blog post about it.

I am a Developer by trade and program in Python and Go.

I searched for the M5 Python Library documentation and only found this GitHub. https://github.com/m5stack

I also downloaded the VSCode Extension, but when I did, from m5stack import * Python did not know about it.

I also tried this pip install m5stack, but that did not work. I then went to https://pypi.org/ to find the Python Library documentation, but it came up blank.

I want to buy this product: "M5Stack Watering Unit with Moisture Sensor and Pump", and program it for my needs.

My main question is, where is the Documentation, and how on earth do I program that device using Python? Or MicroPython?

This is still the case. I can't find any information on how to use the M5 Python Library.

1. Where does it live? I've seen a GitHub repo, but it mainly says C++ or Arduino. As far as I can tell, this is not good for me.
2. Why can't I import it with pip? It's also not on https://pypi.org/. Why not if it is becoming a major player in the Pi world?
3. What can I do with that library?
4. What functions does it contain?

None of this stuff is easy to find, making this product unusable for use.

@ajb2k3 Has anyone used this unit with Python as I can only see it works with Arduino or UIFlow. I was wondering how to program it with Python, or MicroPython.
