"Bare metal" CircuitPython on a Raspberry Pi, HDMI, and e-ink :)

Ok! This is super fun, Scott is working on a port of CircuitPython that runs on "bare metal" on the Raspberry Pi. So of course I wanted to see what works with HDMI since we can show the REPL... and I happen to have an e-ink HDMI display. It's AWESOME.

One of the plans is to make a little computer with a keyboard, that is just CircuitPython. Write code, make art ... with HDMI, have the output go to a little portable projector... kids could make cool kaleidoscopes, or make a Haiku computer that shows the last one made when the power is off since this one is e-ink :)

Code is here for now, and watch Scott's Deep Dive each week at 5pm EDT on our socialz' for more!
