Documentation for installing is missing

[oksome]

I'd like to give micropython-lib a try, but I don't know how to build it and set it up.

Can you document the required steps ?

It's not that missing as spread around, which is common problem. Then, there's vicious cycle - I don't want to make initial hacky ways to do it kind of "official docs" before there will be enough testing, but then people can't find any docs at all.

So, please start here:

• http://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=70
• RFC: PyPI packaging guidelines micropython#413

and I'll look into adding something to README after all.

Updating the README with a warning about how hacky it is should probably be enough, but at the moment it is very unclear.

From what I understood, I should use pip-micropython from micropython/tools. Should I install every package individually ?

[pfalcon]

Ok, I added basic instructions to README. They surely expect some familiarity with standard Python package installation process.

Should I install every package individually ?

You can use it the same way as you use pip. This includes installing packages individually, or several at once, or using requirements file. Please refer to pip documentation.
