Building MicroPython

This repo contains a MicroPython WASM build in the folder micropython-build, generated by a GitHub Action. If you wish to manually build MicroPython, you can do so using Docker.

Warning: this will delete and replace all contents of micropython-build.

1. Make sure the micropython submodule is actually populated on disk before building. Run: git submodule update --init --recursive
2. Build the Docker image. One-time step — only needs repeating if you edit dockerfile or docker-build.sh. Run: docker build -f dockerfile -t micropython-wasm-builder .
3. Run the build. This mounts your current directory into the container at /app, runs make, and copies the output back out to your host. Run: docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/app micropython-wasm-builder
4. Check the output. You should now have micropython.mjs and micropython.wasm sitting in micropython-build/.
