https://toptechboy.com/two-axis-tilt-meter-displaying-pitch-and-roll- using-an-mpu6050-on-the-raspberry-pi-pico-w/ You might have to go back a lesson or two for the lead up. As he generally says in the intro most of what he uses is from the Sunfounder Kepler kit. It has a standard LCD display but he suggested buying the OLED separately and used it for Lissajous patterns and other fancier stuff. It's not a bad series although he can be long-winded and his Python style definitely isn't PEP8 friendly. https://toptechboy.com/ He switched to the Arduino Uno R4 after the IR controller/NeoPixel Pico project and I don't know if he intends to go back to the Pico. He uses Thonny but I use the MicroPython extension in VS Code. Lately I've been using Code for everything. Mostly I work on Linux boxes but it's all the same on Windows. There is a PlatformIO extension that works with Arduino and other boards. PyLance upsets some because it's a MS product but it works well too. I've used PyCharm and like it but I also work on C, .NET, Angular, and other projects and Code gives me a uniform IDE. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
