@ -61,6 +65,7 @@ A pinout sheet can be found [here](Pinout_-_Pico-W.png).
- WARNING: the pico always runs the main.py file on startup, so there's no chance to connect to it via USB. If you do so, and want to change things later, you have to completely reinstall [microPython](https://micropython.org/) on your Pico and all previously uploaded files will be gone. ONLY DO THAT IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
