GPIO Zero v1.5 is out, helping people program on Raspberry Pi #PiDay #RaspberryPi @Raspberry_Pi

GPIO Zero v1.5 is here!

Via the Raspberry Pi blog:

GPIO Zero is a zero-boilerplate Python library that makes physical computing with Python more accessible and helps people progress from zero to hero.

Today, I’m pleased to announce the release of GPIO Zero v1.5.0. It’s packed full of updates, including new features, bug fixes, and lots of improvements to the documentation.

Guido, the creator of Python, happened across the library recently, and he seemed to like it:

Noted changes:

  • Changeable Pin Factories
  • Ultrasonic distance sensor updates
  • Device connection
