Raspberry Pi Pico W microcontroller review, plus tutorial connecting the board to a BME280 sensor module to create a wireless weather station that transmits temperature, pressure and humidity readings to a web browser. On this web page you can find the wiring diagram and a link to the final code: https://www.explainingcomputers.com/pi_pico_w_weather.html The excellent Pi Pico W "getting started" instructions from the Raspberry Pi Foundation are here: https://projects.raspberrypi.org/en/projects/get-started-pico-w The page with links to download the MicroPython UF2 file is here: https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/micropython.html The Pimoroni BME280 sensor I used in the video is available directly from Pimoroni, or on Amazon.co.uk here: https://amzn.to/3Q18Rjy A compatible board is available on Amazon.com here: https://amzn.to/3PXnF1q Note that these are affiliate links, and that as an Amazon Associate I earn a commission from any qualifying purchases you may make.

You can find a link to this UF2 file at the bottom of this page: https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/raspberry-pi-pico.html Note that after execution you will have to reinstall MicroPython and any required libraries, such as the one for the BME280. All programs will also be erased! Hence, during program development, it is wise to save a copy to both the Pico W and to the PC you are working on.
