What's the OS like there? I'm guessing you're not booting into a Wayland desktop. However, that's way more powerful than the Amiga I emulated over the weekend and it had a full GUI desktop, compilers, and all sort of other stuff.
Basically, what can you do with it out of the box?
Edit: Dont' care; ordered anyway. I'll find out when it gets here. I still wonder what I can get excited about in the mean time.
- anigbrowl 2y agoIt comes with a demo, which does not do much (edit text, run a python REPL, record and play back audio). Since you've ordered one, you have a few options; use the pretty solid ESP/IDF IDE to program it in C and start familiarizing yourself with the M5unified stack*, or if you are more of a Python person check out M5stack's UIflow tool. This implements a Scratch-like component-plugging interface, but also gives you access to a Python editor that works in parallel with it. This makes prototyping very easy and is a handy way to get familiar with the CPU modules and built-in peripherals because most (though not all) of the functionality is implemented there. * https://github.com/m5stack/M5Unified https://github.com/m5stack/M5Unified
