This repository contains code (main.py) that works with a pimoroni badger 2040.
To load the code the simplest way is to use Thonny (https://thonny.org/). You can drag, drop, and execute code very easily.
After loading the code on your device, you need to also load up configuration files. Each button corresponds to a specific named file such as:
- a.txt
- b.txt
- c.txt
- up.txt
- down.txt
The first line in the file should be set to the string you want to see at the top of the badge. The second string of the file should be set to your name, the largest text to be displayed on screen. The third line displays right below your name, it's the first of the bottom two rows. The fourth line displays below your name, it's the second of the bottom two rows. The fifth line can be anything you want coded into the QR code displayed to the right of your name and the bottom rows.
