  1. Lua is a popular language used in many programs for user scripts. One notable mention in the Unix world is NeoVim, although it's probably even more popular in the game industry. I recently discovered pocketpy, which aims to do the same but with a Python 3 language subset. In the post I just have published in my blog I show how to use pocketpy with C. Hope it's useful!

  2. Adding a WiringPi module to TIC-80's Python interpreter rvr.typepad.com/wind/2025/03/a

    This is a project that I worked on last weekend. TIC-80 is one of the most popular open source "fantasy consoles", imaginary retro-console emulators with IDE for code, sprites, maps and music. I show how to extend TIC-80's Python interpreter, pocketpy, to add GPIO access for the Raspberry Pi.

    Edit: Just uploaded the code to github.
