[–] AlteE@programming.dev 7 points 4 months ago (1 child) Requires a 3D printer to program. Now you have got my attention. permalink fedilink source hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 months ago he made a 3D-printed three-prong fork-like tool to program each MCU. He then took said tool and attached it to the 3D printer's carriage, and used a Python script issuing direct G-code to the printer to precisely aim it at each MCU in the board. permalink fedilink source parent
