micropython-lib is a highly experimental community project.
Please help to drive it to just "experimental" state by testing
provided packages with MicroPython.

micropython-lib
micropython-lib is a project to develop a non-monolothic standard library
for MicroPython. Each module or package is available as a separate
distribution package from PyPI. Each module is either written from scratch or
ported from CPython.
Note that the main target of micropython-lib is a "Unix" port of MicroPython
(future ports to be determined). Actual system requirements vary per module.
Though if a module is not related to I/O, the module should work without
problem on bare-metal ports too.
Usage
micropython-lib packages are published on PyPI (Python Package Index),
the standard Python community package repository: http://pypi.python.org/ .
On PyPi, you can search for MicroPython related packages and read
additional package information.
To install packages from PyPI for usage on your local system, use the
pip-micropython tool, which is a simple wrapper around the standard
pip tool, which is used to install packages for CPython.
The pip-micropython tool can be found in tools subdirectory
of the main MicroPython repository (https://github.com/micropython/micropython).
Just install the pip-micropython script somewhere on your PATH.
Afterwards, just use pip-micropython in a way similar to pip:
Review the pip-micropython source code for more info.
Development
To install modules during development, use make install. By default, all
available packages will be installed. To install a specific module, add the
MOD=<module> parameter to the end of the make install command.
