M5 Stack Fire - can recommend!
-
After being thoroughly disappointed with the Wio Terminal, I picked up an M5 Stack Fire development kit. For any of you that want to get started with IoT development this monster will let you code in C++ (Arduino, ESP-IDF) or MicroPython. And you don't have to wire anything. This thing is gold plated in terms of its featureset! Like some people sat around and asked "what can we realistically cram onto an ESP32?" and then they did it. It also has a magnetic base and will attach to legos and will run on a chargeable LIPO battery. All in a neat package with stackable components for extending it. It can do a lot. It's a great development kit and well worth the $50-$60 So if you want to get started on IoT development, or if you already have and you just want a heckin neat little widget, give this thing a shot. Get the Fire edition. It has PSRAM. Feature brief: ESP32 xtensa6 based dual core @ 240mhz 8MB of PSRAM 16MB of Flash ILI9342C 320x240x16bit screen (I think touchscreen, i may be wrong) Simple speaker and microphone 3 programmable buttons Built in gyroscope/accelerometer Temperature sensor LoRa radio (I think?) SD Reader Will connect to Grove components
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.
