cross-posted from: https://programming.dev/post/18765600

Hi everyone,

I would like to learn to program and built project using MicroControllers

I'm a Python dev. Therefore I would like to use it to program those.

But I've no idea where to start..

• For the hardware:
  • What will be the best Raspberry Pi or Arduino ?
    I know they are not the same thing but could tell me in which situation you use more one than the other ? Or do you use something else ?
• Software
  • I've already my IDE VisualCodium
    What is MicroPython Vs CircuitPython ?

If you have any resources I'm all eras.

Thanks.
