Using the Qwiic Python Drivers

SparkFun offers an ever-growing list of Qwiic Python Drivers that enable interfacing with SparkFun Qwiic devices in Python, MicroPython, and CircuitPython. Generally, each qwiic driver relies on the qwiic_i2c_py driver to provide the cross-platform I2C functions used by each driver. To get started with the Qwiic Python drivers, grab a qwiic connector, your Qwiic device, a supported controller board with MicroPython, CircuitPython, or Linux installed and visit the qwiic__py software repository for your device from the driver list below.
