Dear friends welcome to another tutorial! Today we are going see how to build this low-cost real-time clock and thermometer with a color TFT display using CircuitPython on a Raspberry Pi Pico board.

6 years ago, I built a similar project using an Arduino Uno board and the Arduino IDE. Now that new, much faster boards are available, we can use CircuitPython, an implementation of Python for microcontrollers, to build the same project.Is CircuitPython a good choice for this project? Lets find out.

Supplies:
- Display
- Raspberry Pi Pico
- RTC DS3231
- A small Breadboard
- Wires”
