MicroPython ESP32 minimal UART example

This example shows how to use UART on the ESP32 using MicroPython. In this example, we use UART1 which is mapped to pins GPIO9 (RX) and GPIO10 (TX).

from machine import UART
uart = UART(1, 115200) # 1st argument: UART number: Hardware UART #1

# Write
uart.write("test")

# Read
print(uart.read()) # Read as much as possible using

Don’t know how to upload the file to MicroPython so it is automatically run on boot?
