@HiassofT can you look into this one? As long as it aligns to the direction direction RPi devs are pushing for with GPIO? |

@chewitt I'll do some tests next week when I'm finished with family visits. In general I think using upstream libgpiod is a huge improvement over all the oddball gpiozero, lgpio, RPi-tools etc shenanigans which are poorly supported, have multiple long-time unfixed issues and don't seem to go anywhere with fixing them. |

gpiod are the official Python bindings for libgpiod. libgpiod is already part of the system tools add-on, only these Python bindings are currently missing to be able to use it in Python scripts.
lgpio and gpiozero are easier to use, but currently have some insurmountable problems, as I have tried to explain here:
