Realtek's RTL8722DM development board now supports running Python code through the MicroPython firmware. You can now control the GPIO and other peripherals using the Python syntax through the REPL interface in MicroPython, or by writing it as a script on the device.

MicroPython on the RTL8722DM is still in the alpha release, with ongoing active development to add in more features such as WiFi and BLE, but the core peripherals are supported and ready for testing.

The RTL8722DM is an IoT-ready MCU powered by an ARM Cortex-M4 core at up to 200MHz coupled with a Cortex-M0 core at up to 20MHz.
It includes support for standard MCU features such as UART / I2C / SPI / ADC / PWM / GPIO interfaces, as well as dual band WiFi connections at both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, and BLE 5.0 connections.

More details on running MicroPython on the RTL8722DM can be found in the github repository at:
