@teastain That's what I'm trying to do! I find the UIFlow2 IDE really convenient for its toolchain integration and would like to be able to use micropython directly in it with first-class support.

RE: Python development in UIFlowposted in UiFlow 2.0
@kuriko I disagree, the feature is incredibly necessary. I like UIFlow a lot as a framework and I quite like the Python API, but the block programming system is unwieldy for folks who know Python and want to write more expressive programs.
(I'm also not a fan of the codegen done by any visual programming engine, but that gripe is more stylistic than substantive)
I am reasonable at C++ but I really prefer doing prototyping in Python and I like the drag-and-drop UI of the UIFlow2 IDE. I've just been saving it in a text buffer.

The current UIFlow IDE doesn't actually have any way of saving code written in the "custom edit" mode. This is especially problematic given that the uiflow2 plugin for VSCode, the only other fully-featured IDE with support for for M5Stack mpy, seems to have been abandoned around a year ago.
