Mako vs. MicroPython vs. Wing Python IDE vs. websockets Comparison Chart

The MicroPython pyboard is a compact electronic circuit board that runs MicroPython on the bare metal, giving you a low-level Python operating system that can be used to control all kinds of electronic projects. MicroPython is packed full of advanced features such as an interactive prompt, arbitrary precision integers, closures, list comprehension, generators, exception handling and more. Yet it is compact enough to fit and run within just 256k of code space and 16k of RAM. MicroPython aims to be as compatible with normal Python as possible to allow you to transfer code with ease from the desktop to a microcontroller or embedded system.

An implementation of the WebSocket Protocol (RFC 6455 & 7692). websockets is a library for building WebSocket servers and clients in Python with a focus on correctness, simplicity, robustness, and performance. Built on top of asyncio, Python’s standard asynchronous I/O framework, it provides an elegant coroutine-based API. websockets is heavily tested for compliance with RFC 6455. Continuous integration fails under 100% branch coverage. websockets is built for production. For example, it was the only library to handle backpressure correctly before the issue became widely known in the Python community. Memory usage is optimized and configurable. A C extension accelerates expensive operations. It’s pre-compiled for Linux, macOS, and Windows and packaged in the wheel format for each system and Python version. websockets takes care of everything under the hood so you can focus on your application!
