Pico workflow: Thonny vs mpremote vs rshell, what stuck?
Posted: Mon Jul 06, 2026 2:00 am
MicroPython on Pico. Started with Thonny (easy REPL). Now project has 6 files, Thonny file management painful.
Tried:
+ Thonny for live REPL debug.
MicroPython devs: whats your deploy loop for multi-file projects? Any VS Code extension worth the setup?
Tried:
- Thonny: great REPL, clunky multi-file
- mpremote: CLI, scriptable, steep start
- rshell: rsync-like, feels natural from bash background
