About:
mpremote is a command-line tool that provides an interactive REPL and file management capabilities for MicroPython devices. It allows users to connect to boards over USB or network connections to run scripts, transfer files, and manage the filesystem. The tool serves as a modern replacement for the deprecated pyboard.py script, offering a more robust and user-friendly interface.
Key Features:
  • Interactive REPL access to MicroPython devices
  • File system operations (copy, mount, ls, rm, mkdir)
  • Script execution and code deployment
  • Multiple device connection support
  • Built-in package management for frozen modules
Use Cases:
  • Developing and testing MicroPython code directly on hardware
  • Deploying firmware and scripts to embedded devices
  • Managing files on MicroPython filesystems
  • Automating device setup and configuration
Alternatives:
  • rshell – rshell provides similar file transfer and REPL capabilities but mpremote is officially maintained by MicroPython
  • ampy – Adafruit's ampy focuses on file operations only, lacking the interactive REPL features of mpremote
