MicroPython Stubs: Enhance Your Development Experience

Welcome to the MicroPython Stubs repository!

Here, you’ll find a treasure trove of over 3,000 stub files generated by the MicroPython-Stubber tool. Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned developer, these stubs are designed to supercharge your MicroPython development process.

Stubs are like cheat sheets for your code. They provide hints, auto-completion, and static type checking, making your life as a developer easier and more productive. Here’s what you can expect from these MicroPython stubs:

• Faster Coding: With stubs, you’ll write code more quickly and confidently. No more guessing function names or parameters!
• Fewer Errors: Stubs help catch mistakes early. If you provide incorrect arguments, you’ll get immediate feedback.
• Code Completion: Say goodbye to endless Bingling. Stubs provide context-aware auto-completion, even for board-specific features.
• Static Type Checking: By adding typing information, you’ll catch type-related bugs before they cause runtime issues.

One Click test in your bowser

Try the stubs with your own code in your browser in the Stubs Playground

One CLI install on your machine.

Use the setup script to create a pyproject.toml using the test template and install stubs into typings:

uv run https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Josverl/micropython-stubs/refs/heads/main/setup_micropython_stubs.py

Allows you to select :

• your project folder
• the source layout of your project (src/flat)
• the static type checker you use (pyright, mypy, ty, none)
• Select the stubs package you want to use

This will create or update a pyproject.toml file , with the settings for your preferred type cheker or IDE and install the stubs into a typings folder in your project folder.

No need to wade through pages of documentation to get started, just run the script and you are good to go!

Note: The setup script is in early beta, so expect some rough edges and please share your feedback and suggestions for improvement. uv is still the recommended runner for the one-line setup command above. For package installation, the script now auto-falls back to pipx run --spec pip pip install ... --target ... when uv is not available.

Installation

For installation instructions and configuration of your preferred IDE, please refer to the documentation

Integrations with IDEs and Tools

PyCharm / IntelliJ:

• https://github.com/lukaskremla/micropython-tools-jetbrains - MicroPython Tools Plugin for PyCharm, CLion, IntelliJ and other JetBrains IDEs

Thonny:

• https://github.com/thonny/thonny - Thonny IDE 5 has built-in support for MicroPython and uses the micropython-stubs.

Tooling:

• https://github.com/standsi/MicropythonStubsFetchTypescript - A TypeScript tool to fetch and use MicroPython stubs for code completion and type checking in editors like VSCode.

Explore Available Stubs

Curious about which versions, ports, and boards are covered, or the differences between different board ?

Try the beta version of the new Stubs Explorer, an app written in MicroPython using PyScript to explore and compare MicroPython stubs for various boards.

Or check out the online viewer or search for MicroPython stub packages on PyPI.

For a comprehensive overview of all stubs, dive into the documentation on the documentation on read the docs.

Sponsoring

In order to build accurate stubs I need access to a board to flash it with a specific version of MicroPython and run part of the stubbing software (createsubs.py) on the board.

You can help me by:

• running the software and sharing a PR with the generated MCU stubs,

• sending me a spare board you may have,

• or by sponsoring me through Github

Contributors

Thanks to everyone that has submitted stubs or other relevant pieces of code and information, or published relevant stubs on pypi or github.
