Add support for ESPBOY
Espboy is a diy esp8266 based project that's similar to cardputer but available from long ago.
Can you port the awesome project for espboy? https://www.espboy.com/
Sounds like a cool project!
Unfortunately I don't have one of these, so I can't personally do the port.
But, I'll leave the issue open in case anyone else wants to take a crack at it (and feel free to message me for help, if you do!)
Ladies and Gentlemen! The dream device has been created https://www.clockworkpi.com/picocalc I can't wait to start creating software for it

You don't need espboy, just esp8266 can do. And it's full diy.

You think that can surpass cardputer? I just wanna know. It's looking awesome but cardputer uses esp32 that's a lot powerful than rpi pico /stm32.
And espboy already has a lot of features like GSM phone GPS navigator Meteostation LORA messenger RFID/NFC reader/repeater Sub1Ghz inspector Sub1Ghz scanner MOD/S3M/XM/IT player AY38910/12 Yamaha chip player Web radio FM radio Walkie-talkie Meccano rover Flower watering Ice fishing automation Volt/Amper meter CW radio beacon RSS reader Digital ruler Pinger Digital thermometer Heart rate meter WiFi analizer WiFi sniffer WiFi packet monitor WiFi pinger WiFi deauther IR blaster Geiger counter I2C scanner MP3 player

MicroPython already supports esp8266!
If I wanted to port MicroHydra's libraries to any new device, i need the entire device, haha. For example, I couldn't really port the display driver without the new display... And the same goes for all the other peripherals, unfortunately.

Honestly I really love my rp2040 boards. The raw performance is a bit lower, but the 8 programmable state-machines (and lots of readily available MicroPython modules that utilize them) makes them really capable little devices.
The picocalc seems to also support the pico2, which would be faster! (I couldn't find any benchmarks comparing it to an esp32s3, but here's one that compares it to an esp32 in integer and floating point performance!)

Yeah i like it too, i have one. It's small in size and also has built in usb storage support(that was great when i was beginner), better for micro/circuit Python, that isn't available in esp32 devboard. (At first ) I had to upload files via web browser that was frustrating, hahah.
