CircuitPython[2] is an education friendly open source derivative of the MicroPython programming language from Adafruit Industries, LLC. It is an open source derivative of software implementation of the Python 3 programming language, written in C. It is optimized to run on several modern microcontrollers which may not be supported by MicroPython.
CircuitPython is a full Python compiler and runtime that runs on the microcontroller hardware. The user is presented with an interactive prompt (the REPL) to execute supported commands immediately. Included are a selection of core Python libraries. CircuitPython includes modules which give the programmer access to the low-level hardware of Adafruit compatible products as will as higher level libraries for beginners.[3]
CircuitPython is a fork of MicroPython, originally created by the Damien George.
The source code for the project can be found on GitHub.[4]
