CORRECTION: Dan H from the CircuitPython team points out that after performing storage.erase_filesystem() to clean out files, you should NOT delete .fseventsd, .fseventsd/no_log, .metadata_never_index, and .Trashes. There are space-saving techniques used by CP to help prevent additional extra files from being stored on your device, so you can keep these files on your device after the erase_filesystem() command. Sorry for confusion & thx to Dan H for kindly reaching out with advice for all!
John, I have a question: In your videos the CPB runs the code as soon as you hit the 'Save' button. On my system it takes a while before the code starts. Sometimes it takes one or more seconds. I run Mu 1.2.0 on a Mac running macOS Sonoma 14.3.1 How come? Is there a Mu setting to change this behaviour?
Check out the example in the playlist showing the REPL. When you enter the REPL you'll see the CircuitPython version number. Look at about 1:04 at: ruclips.net/video/22Eeto1J4rA/видео.html

what to do if you did delete those files.... asking for a friend :(
Thanks!
Wow! How super kind of you & very unexpected. Sincerest thanks. Will use for more hardware goodness. Cheers!

How come?

Unsure. I noticed the change and am unsure if it was a CircuitPython or MacOS update. You might check on Adafruit Discord.
Please tell us how to determine the version of circuitpython we have installed so we know which library version to install? Thanks.
