Do you want to know how to auto-start MicroPython scripts on Raspberry Pi Pico, CircuitPython devices or BBC micro:bits? Then this is the video for you.
I go through the why, and how in this video and the differences between the different versions of MicroPython.

I had no idea you could have it run boot -> main automatically! I thought I would have to import another file to the boot file to get it to run after the boot. That is so good to know and I can't believe I didn't see it in the official documentation. Maybe I just missed it? Either way thanks for all the great videos!

What do you think of this new format of shorter videos?

I really like them Kevin. Packed full of useful info and very slickly presented. Great work.

Quick, to the point, information and overall very underrated. You deserve a bigger fanbase, not only of Raspberry Pi robots🤣

Good format, First time that I have watched one of your videos, not too fast or too slow and thank goodness not hyperactive and wordy like some I could mention.

Can boot.py be used to run a menu that gives a choice of running one of multiple programs? This would be really useful for running different setups on the same machine. Maybe a choice between operating a robot by radio control, or in autonomous mode. Or choose between a number of different tasks or functions.

@kevinmcaleer28 3 года назад

Absolutely - with a little display and a rotary encoder this would work perfectly

@kevinmcaleer28 3 года назад

You can even make such a menu dynamic using os.listdir to get a list of all python files on the device

I've been wondering that since the day the Pico was launched, and discovered it could store multiple files, but I've never come across any mention of it. I didn't know about boot.py, but knew about main.py. No doubt RU-vid will now suggest loads of videos on the subject, to prove I'm the only one who didn't know!!!!!!

@kevinmcaleer28 3 года назад

hey John - guess what my next video is about? Rotary menu display to launch python apps from the Pico! I’ve got the code running as we speak

@@kevinmcaleer28 Great. I've got lots of uses for it, and it saves me having to work out how to do it!
