My thoughts around CircuitPython in 2025 break down broadly into general wishes and thoughts about the project and more personalized and specific thoughts, goals and ideas for myself.

For the project generally:

I am intrigued by the prospect of potentially integrating with zephyr, though some of the finer details of what this entails and what impacts it will have are over my head, from what I've understood listening to Scott talk about it in meetings and on Deep Dive there are interesting and good benefits that it could offer. I think I recall a mention or two on the possibility of using LVGL, which is definitely something I'd be happy to see happen, even if it's in a limited capacity or not fully exposed imediately. I'm also looking forward to some of the new crypto functionality being implemented primarily for circuitmatter. While I don't have specific uses for it in mind, I do have a hobbyist interest in cryptography and playing with the crypto implementations on circuitpython and microcontrollers is a

	"""
	Display a (possibly scaled) X session to a matrix

	The display runs until the graphical program exits.

	The display doesn't get a keyboard or mouse, so you have to use a program that
	will get its input in some other way, such as from a gamepad.

	For help with commandline arguments, run `python virtualdisplay.py --help`

	#!/usr/bin/python3
	"""
	Mirror a scaled copy of the framebuffer to 64x32 matrices,

	The upper left corner of the framebuffer is displayed until the user hits ctrl-c.

	Control scale, matrix size, and orientation with command line arguments.

	python fbmirror_scaled.py [scale] [width] [height] [orientation]
