Getting to ‘Hello World’ with Raspberry Pi Pico and Pico W

Savage MakerVerse

Saturday August 27, 2022 - 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm


Built around our own Raspberry Silicon, RP2040, the new Raspberry Pi Pico and Pico W are low-cost, high-performance, yet flexible microcontroller boards. We’ll take this opportunity to introduce you to the platform, and then go hands-on with the official MicroPython port. When you’re writing software for hardware, turning an LED on, off, and then on again, is typically the first program that gets run in a new programming environment. Learning how to blink an LED gets you halfway to anywhere. Then, after blinking an LED on and off, the next thing that most developers will want to do is create and use a serial port, and say "Hello World.” We’re going to do both with Raspberry Pi Pico.
