<![CDATA[Latest Firmware for Atom Lite]]>Does the Atom Lite come with the latest firmware installed or is there a newer version than Micropython-1.12? I found some firmware on the MicroPython site but when I load it everything appears to go as expected but then I can't reach my Atom Lite via VSCode afterwards. I can put everything back using M5Burner but wanted the newer firmware. Has anyone else trien to update the firmware and if so where did you find it and what version did you use? Thanks in advance.

Here are the results of my attemp showing no errors:

I have 1.19 running on M5Stamps at the moment but you have to remember that Mainsteam MP won’t have the M5Stack specific libraries

or

v1.9.1 from here https://micropython.org/download/M5STACK_ATOM/

Thanks for responding.

Core MP does not have any of the M5Stack libraries.
