MicroPython

MicroPython is a lean and fast implementation of the Python 3 programming language that is optimised to run on a microcontroller. It was originally created by the Australian programmer and physicist Damien George, after a highly successful Kickstarter backed campaign in 2013. In 2016 a version of MicroPython for the BBC micro:bit was created as part of the Python Software Foundation's contribution to the micro:bit partnership with the BBC.

The source code for the project can be found on GitHub.
