This is a flake that knows how to build and flash MicroPython. It can either be invoked directly to build a basic firmware, or it can be used as an input flake and be used as a tool to build a custom firmware.

nix run github:jonahbron/micropython-builder#flash-esp32c3-generic

See examples directory or a real project for how to use this builder in your own flake. The examples are also a flake and can be run directly.
