Testing out CircuitPython library support for U2IF on Pico
Adafruiter Carter recently did a PR for adding Blinka support to the U2IF for RP2040 project. According to the developer, "u2if (USB to interfaces) is an attempt to implement some of the MicroPython "machine" module functionalities on a computer. The goal is to be able to communicate with breakout boards (sensors, lcd...) simply from a python program on x86 machine. It uses a Raspberry PICO microcontroller to make the interface between the computer (USB) and peripherals/protocols." Hey that sounds a lot like Blinka, our compatibility layer for adding CircuitPython library support to CPython…
