101- The [ "minimal"] ( ports/minimal ) port provides an example of a very basic
102- MicroPython port and can be compiled as both a standalone Linux binary as
103- well as for ARM Cortex M4. Start with this if you want to port MicroPython to
104- another microcontroller. Additionally the [ "bare-arm"] ( ports/bare-arm ) port
105- is an example of the absolute minimum configuration, and is used to keep
106- track of the code size of the core runtime and VM.

101+ Over twenty different MicroPython ports are provided in this repository,
102+ split across three
103+ [ MicroPython Support Tiers] ( https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/develop/support_tiers.html ) .
104+
105+ Tier 1 Ports
106+ ============
107+
108+ 👑 Ports in [ Tier 1] ( https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/develop/support_tiers.html )
109+ are mature and have the most active development, support and testing:
110+

121+ An asterisk indicates that the port has ongoing financial support from the vendor.
122+
123+ Tier 2 Ports
124+ ============
125+
126+ ✔ Ports in [ Tier 2] ( https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/develop/support_tiers.html )
127+ are less mature and less actively developed and tested than Tier 1, but
128+ still fully supported:
129+
130+ | Port | Target | Quick Reference |
131+ | ----------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------------------------------|
132+ | [ alif] ( ports/alif ) | Alif Semiconductor Ensemble MCUs (E3, E7) | |

138+
139+ Tier 3 Ports
140+ ============
141+
142+ Ports in [ Tier 3] ( https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/develop/support_tiers.html )
143+ are built in CI but not regularly tested by the MicroPython maintainers:
144+
145+ | Port | Target | Quick Reference |
146+ | ----------------------------| -------------------------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------------------------------|
147+ | [ cc3200] ( ports/cc3200 ) | Texas Instruments CC3200 | [ For WiPy] ( https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/wipy/quickref.html ) |
148+ | [ esp8266] ( ports/esp8266 ) | Espressif ESP8266 SoC | [ here] ( https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/esp8266/quickref.html ) |
149+ | [ pic16bit] ( ports/pic16bit ) | Microchip PIC 16-bit | |
150+ | [ powerpc] ( ports/powerpc ) | IBM PowerPC (including Microwatt) | |
151+
152+ Additional Ports
153+ ================
154+
155+ In addition to the above there is a Tier M containing ports that are used
156+ primarily for maintenance, development and testing:
157+
158+ - The [ "bare-arm"] ( ports/bare-arm ) port is an example of the absolute minimum
159+ configuration that still includes the compiler, and is used to keep track
160+ of the code size of the core runtime and VM.
161+
162+ - The [ "minimal"] ( ports/minimal ) port provides an example of a very basic
163+ MicroPython port and can be compiled as both a standalone Linux binary as
164+ well as for ARM Cortex-M4. Start with this if you want to port MicroPython
165+ to another microcontroller.
166+
167+ - The [ qemu] ( ports/qemu ) port is a QEMU-based emulated target for Cortex-A,
168+ Cortex-M, RISC-V 32-bit and RISC-V 64-bit architectures.
