This is a bit of a surprise. Raspberry released a GCC 15.1 version of their Pico RISCV toolchain. That's a more recent version than the current (at the time of writing, 14.2) version of the mainstream ARM toolchain.
If you are using the VSCode P...

This project is a cursed reinterpretation of a Tamagotchi, but instead of caring for a cute little creature, you're managing the brutally cynical arc of human life going through all the levels of the Maslow's pyramid. Think of it as a social ...
Hey everyone! I’m very new here and just wanted to introduce myself and share a project I'm working on. The idea came to me when I was digging through storage and found my old Hasbro interactive R2-D2 from 2002, sitting there covered ...
In this tutorial video, we shall see how to program the MAKER UNO RP2040 for the first time. This video covers the very basic on how to get started using the board.
