🚀 The tech preview of Blynk.Edgent for MicroPython has been released 🚀
https://github.com/Blynk-Technologies/Blynk-MicroPython-Edgent

This release includes:

• Smartphone Apps
• Web Dashboards
• Network management for WiFi, Ethernet and Cellular
• Secure MQTT connection to the cloud
• OTA updates using Blynk.Console
• Time Zone handling (including DST transitions), Sunrise/Sunset calculation
• Configuration storage and management
• and many other features on top of (almost) vanilla MicroPython

This is available for Generic boards like ESP32 and RPi Pico W.
With the next releases, we'll introduce pre-configured builds for specific dev boards.

Feedback is welcome!

Does it support all the versions of the ESP32?

[vshymanskyy]

Yes, it does support: ESP32, ESP32-S3, ESP32-C3.
ESP32-C6 support will be added as it gets merged into MicroPython

[vshymanskyy]

Ultimately, I'd like to ship it in a form of MicroPython library package.
It will require upstreaming our changes to MicroPython, which will probably take some time.
So for now we're providing ready-to-use builds.
