MicroPython Flipper Zero

This branch contains the research of adding Python support to the famous Flipper Zero gadget. The content of this repository is just work in progress at the moment. But the first working examples already look promising. The research phase was successful and the development has moved to a fork of the original firmware. The lib branch of this repository contains just the MicroPython library.

Check the progress in this issue and feel free to share your thoughts and ideas.

Requirements

• Git
• Make
• uFBT available in your PATH (or you have to adjust the Makefile
• Flipper Zero (tested with firmware version 0.99.1 and 0.100.3)

For compiling MicroPython, you will also need:

• gcc
• Arm GNU Toolchain (e.g. gcc-arm-none-eabi on Ubuntu)

Setup

git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:ofabel/mp-flipper.git

Build

Since this application requires a 3th party library, more than just a simple ufbt build is needed to build the application:

make build

You can also build an launch the application on the attached Flipper Zero device in one command:

make launch

Usage

The application just starts with an open file browser. Here you can select any Python file to compile and execute from the SD card.

Disclaimer

This is work in progress and just a proof of concept. The produced application has very limited functionality at the moment and since the whole application runs in the SRAM there is not much space left. However, the Python application itself can use about 16 kB of heap space (minus up to 2 kB for the stack).
