Also my first time programming a Pi Pico, I have used other boards eg. Pi Zero, full sized Pi, Arduino, Teensy, Seeeduino, ESP8266 and ESP32.
Got my VS Code setup to program it. Just did a basic plot to ThreeJS.
The body will be 3D printed when I design it, right now I'm just interfacing with all the parts and then I'll put together the whole code and design the body.
