This plugin brings MicroPython support into JetBrains IDEs in Free and Pro editions.
It provides reliable device file system integration, REPL support, stub package management, firmware flashing, run
configurations and smooth workflows for developing both hobbyist and professional MicroPython projects.
The Free edition covers all essential MicroPython development needs, while the Pro edition adds advanced tools like
background transfers, compression, mpy-cross compilation, and bytecode analysis. Pro is just $2.90 a month, with a free
trial available on the JetBrains Marketplace.
Usage tips, setup guide and documentation are available here.

Requirements
System Requirements
- A valid Python interpreter 3.10+
- Python Community plugin (for non-PyCharm IDEs)
MicroPython Device Requirements
- Official MicroPython firmware version 1.20.0 or newer from micropython.org/download
- Device must support standard MicroPython REPL features (REPL, Raw REPL and Raw Paste Mode)
- Some features require additional libraries (e.g.,
binascii.crc32 for skipping already uploaded files). The plugin
will warn if these are unavailable.
Compatibility Notice:
This plugin requires standard MicroPython REPL features (REPL, Raw REPL and Raw Paste Mode). Custom or
manufacturer-modified ports (such as micro:bit) that do not include these features are not compatible and will not
work and no support will be provided for such devices.
If you’re using a custom port that preserves standard REPL functionality, the plugin should work. However, if you
encounter issues, please open an issue with firmware details - we’ll investigate, but cannot guarantee support for
non-standard configurations.
MicroPython versions older than 1.20.0 are not officially supported but may work.
