    problem with some m5Burner version 3 on OSX:

    different versions where released on the website but they are all identified 3.0.0, which is confusing...

    • the one of April 9 2022, which doesn't work with atomS3
    • the one of January 13 2023 which works

    you should increased the last one to 3.0.1 to avoid any confusion for long time users

    Thanks

    Hi,
    Could you unlock from UIFlow 2 the capability to code in micropython…
    Thanks

  • @flex What do you mean as you can work direct in micropython without UIFlow using REPL

  • @IAMLIUBO With the S3's having the internal USB adapter, the S3's can now act as USB drives.
    Can we get a UF2 boot loader so that Stamp and Atom S3's can now be programmed like Microbit and Circuitpython devices (USB storage devices.)

    UIFlow make it easier to upload and test code through the cloud and also to draft the screen UI on the atomS3

    @flex @IAMLIUBO @ajb2k3
    bug in "get UTC time" and "get system uptime in seconds" for AtomS3 and UIFlow2/micropython 1.19.1 is probably related to a confusion handling Unix time 1970 and Unix time 2000 (as 30 years difference returned)

  • @iamliubo can someone from M5Stack please check the AtomS3 GitHub “Issues”.
    I have one outstanding and another question to ask, but no one is there?

  • @flex Some people and groups cant use the cloud platform and so local programming like with the microbic and RPI is needed for them
