Install PyPi packages on RaspPi Pico from VSCode?

[MarkuBu]

Hi, I want to use VSCode for MicroPython development on the RaspPi Pico. It works so far, but I haven't figured out how to install PyPi packages like I can do in Thonny.

Is this possible? And if yes, how?

I don't know about VSCode specifically, but package installation is something that is currently being worked on.

If you want to replicate what Thonny does, the author of Thonny also provides the pipkin tool which does just the package installation part. https://github.com/aivarannamaa/pipkin

Sounds good. Will try it asap. Thanks
