awesome-micropython VS Pico-Go

https://awesome-micropython.com lists a couple of MCP2515 drivers. I wrote my own but it's embedded in another library and uses asyncio so it wouldn't help you much. Or you could port one of the many Arduino drivers. It's really just reading and writing chip registers over SPI.

MicroPython has many libraries available. https://github.com/mcauser/awesome-micropython

Take a look at https://awesome-micropython.com/, there are several libraries for this sensor, maybe you'll find one that works for you.

MicroPython is based on Python 3.5 with some later functionality back-ported, e.g. async/await. The basic language functionality should be identical but you may struggle finding some 3rd party extensions. There's a list of 3rd party modules at awesome-micropython.com and the micropython-lib rep on GitHub.

I see that this library is listed on the MicroPython Awesome List. There are other MPU6050 libs listed there; I'd consider one of the others. I'll try and find time to raise a pull request to this library to tidy it up a little.

Arduino currently offer MicroPython firmwares for their Nano 33 BLE and BLE Sense, the Nano RP2040 Connect, and Portenta H7 board - so it is important to note that you're not about to be running MicroPython on an Arduino Uno - but given the range of available libraries for the language and the relative ease of learning, it is exciting to see even further adoption.

Hey, there's no library for device ____! — Have a look in Awesome MicroPython, the community-maintained directory of drivers. Unlike Arduino, MicroPython hasn't been around for decades, so there are some devices that don't have drivers yet.

Do give it another try if you get a chance; I'd be genuinely interested in hearing about your experience. Be sure to check out the awesome list and micropython-lib if you're looking to fill gaps. There are still many holes but they're rapidly being filled in.

From this list: https://github.com/mcauser/awesome-micropython it looks like there's a couple of nice libraries for button debouncing too: https://github.com/mcauser/awesome-micropython#gpio

I already tried pico-go which worked fine, but I found out that I cannot import my own libraries (i get an error that the library doesn't exist) even though the documentation here in section Pylance shows that it indeed should work. I wanted to report the issue, but on the github, a post from the author says that support for pico-go is basically halted, although the author is searching for someone to either take over the project or at least maintain it.
