In this video we will be having a closer look at the first microcontroller board from Raspberry Pi, the Raspberry Pi Pico. The board is 1.5 years old but back then I was convinced that it was overrated. But things changed and nowadays I think it is a good Arduino alternative. So let me show you how to use the board and what exactly happened that made me change my mind. Let's get started!
