Is there any chance to have feature to flash fw in this plugin?

Now I use Thony to flash fw first, then develop program through this plugin.

I hope there will be tool to support flash fw.

Hello,

Yes, built-in MicroPython flashing support is planned.

I'm currently working on the 0.3.0 release which will add drag and drop interaction support to the file system view, extend the FTP upload functionality and add some more improvements.

0.4.0 will be a rework of how the upload algorithm works, to make this plugin universally compatible with most Jetbrains IDEs.

But after 0.4.0 I'm probably going to focus on MicroPython firmware flashing. At this moment I'm considering some form of mpflash integration for this.

0.3.0 will hopefully be release ready in a few days. I'm almost done with the implementation itself, then I'll have to test it and hopefully won't find significant bugs that would take a long time to fix.

Hello, no, not at this time. MicroPython firmware flashing is planned, but the details of when or how it will be implemented I haven't decided on yet.

Firmware flashing functionality for all ESP, RP2 and SAMD devices was implemented in 2025.3.3.

It offers a user friendly UI for selecting from all board variants available through MicroPython.org, automatically downloads the firmware internally and handles flashing - bot operations with detailed progress reporting to easily view the flashing progress.

Support for flashing a local firmware file instead of using one from MicroPython.org is also included.

This functionality is fully free and available to all users. Future extensions (such as auto-detect appropriate firmware variant, flash run configurations and batch flash multiple devices) might require an active Pro subscription.

Support for flashing other device types/ports of MicroPython is currently not planned, as the remaining unsupported ports have no unified universal flashing approach, meaning that supporting them would be a very difficult task.

This functionality is now fully implemented and publicly available in the latest JetBrains plugin marketplace release. For any inquiries about it, bug reports, or suggestions, please open an issue or start a new discussion.
