• Peter

  • my initial thoughts were giving an overview of MicroPython (use cases, comparison to CPython) and then some real examples using a Raspberry Pi Pico

• Jake (https://github.com/funkyrailroad)

  • Docker theme and show some hands-on development tips. Go over things like building the image, running a container, volume mounts, exposing ports, exec-ing into a running container, etc. I could also do it in the context of web development (e.g. Django), add a database service, and manage both with a single compose file
