Clone the repository.\n2. Copy `config.txt.example` to `config.txt` and fill in the required values.\n\n## Deploy and run\n\nCopy the Python files in the root directory and the `config.txt` file to the Pico W.\n\nExample using `microupload.py` script:\n\n```bash\n$ python3 ./scripts/microupload.py -v /dev/cu.usbmodem14101 config.txt display.py images.py main.py net.py render.py utils.py weather.py\n```\n\nAlternatively, you can use the `mpremote` tool to copy the files to the Pi Pico.\n\n```bash\n$ mpremote connect /dev/cu.usbmodem14101 cp *.py config.txt :\n```\n\n\u003e **Note**\n\u003e The `:` at the end of the command is important. It tells `mpremote` to copy the files to the root directory of the Pi Pico.\n\n---\n\n## Running a REPL session\n\n### Prerequisites\n\nActivate the virtual environment:\n\n```bash\nsource venv/bin/activate\n```\n\nInstall `mpremote` - MicroPython Remote Control:\n\n```bash\npip install mpremote\n```\n\n### Running the REPL\n\nThen to open a REPL session:\n\n```bash\nmpremote\n```\n\nTo exit:\n```\nCtrl-]\n```\n\n---\n\n## Image attribution\n\nWeather icons by \u003ca target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://icons8.com\"\u003eIcons8\u003c/a\u003e.\n\n---\n\n## Future improvements\n\n- [ ] Add support for wind speed (m/s)\n- [ ] Add support for cloudiness (%)\n- [ ] Add support for `alerts`\n- [ ] Improve text wrapping\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Foutofcoffee%2Fpico-weather","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Foutofcoffee%2Fpico-weather","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Foutofcoffee%2Fpico-weather/lists"}
