Guides and tools
- CircuitPython beginner's guide
- Recommended IDE to get Raspberry's output on the computer console. Useful to get started if screen output is not available.
- PuTTY to get access to the Raspberry's REPL alone
- Blinka + FT232H to run CircuitPython on Windows and still access Raspberry's output devices such as the screen.
- Web emulation with CircuitPython Pico
Graphical library
The graphical library used by CircuitPython is displayio. It handles bitmaps, which can be generated from code or loaded from the disk. It works with a hierarchy of groups system. Documentation can be found here.
