I respect any videogame that tells me the world is ending but lets me go fishing

hi devs of bluesky! I'm trying to learn embedded programming. I own an arduino uno and an esp32. For context: I've written software for 3 years mostly using python and typescript and am looking for resources to get my hands dirty with microcontrollers. I'd appreciate any recommendations from anyone!

Are you doing useless project at work without any impact? Who cares you get paid each month anyway, you can do whatever! Want impact and meaning? Do you own projects! Managerial class suckers keep paying while Recreational Programming Chads spiritually self-improve on their money
