rp2040py: a pure-Python RP2040 emulator that boots real MicroPython firmware

[o-murphy]

Sharing in case it's useful for testing/CI: rp2040py
(pip install rp2040py) emulates an RP2040 in pure Python and boots real MicroPython UF2 builds,
REPL included — no hardware or Node.js required. Details in the repo.

Very impressive! Thanks for sharing.

worth the like alone for learning I can use truncate instead of fiddling about with dd options to make an empty file.

Micropython doesn't support it, but I never missed it.
