Abstract
You have decided to learn about microcontrollers using Python. While it would be nice to jump straight into developing cool stuff, there are a few steps you must take to get ready first. If you have experience with software development, you may be accustomed to just opening an editor and typing code right away. However, microcontroller development is a little more involved than that. After all, you will be writing programs for a separate computer, so there is a lot more to set up. A microcontroller development environment consists of not only software but an entire hardware ecosystem that must be understood to unlock all the magic these devices have to offer.
