Also checked the space consumed with os.statvfs(): there's plenty of write space for some decent code.

That said, will be nice to have official BLE support.

Please can someone explain to me (in simple terms with little reference to other mystery items) why it's not there and how I can find and load that module? I just need to start some development :o)

Thanks in advance!

Are you aware that you can write and load your Python apps, selectable via the UiFlow interface? Pretty cool.

I'd love to know if there will be a pure MicroPython firmware soon. UiFlow is great, but I'd stay away from all the preloaded stuff.

Hmm, but this repo hasn't been updated: https://github.com/m5stack/M5Stack_MicroPython
Thats because that firmware is no longer used.
Due to the constant updates and work on the new firmware (and the lockdown) I can't see an updated repo online yet.
@m5stack have you created a new git repo yet or are you waiting untill the firmware is out of beta ?

They are now working with the official branch.
There are still some issues wit BT and wifi but they are working on it.

I'd love to know when the official MicroPython firmware is going to be updated from the main MicroPython release and Espress IDF 4.X firmware.

Since this is the first revision of uiflow firmware based on v1.12 I can imagine it will be implemented soon.

bluetooth support now on master branch

When will there be bluetooth support for m5stick?

Does it make sense to wait?
Because for my projects I need it undebingt.
It has to scan Bluetooth sensors.
At the moment I use Pycom/Wipy which works great.
But since I like the M5Stack very much, I wanted to change if necessary.
