My BlinkBeepSketch robot now has motors!

To maximize precision, I chose to use stepper motors. Due to uncertainties in the open-loop system, the more the robot moves, the more it will diverge from its course.

I bought a couple of 28BYJ-48 motors, the A4988 driver, and connected them to an ESP32. Wrote a MicroPython script to toggle the STEP pin and verified that the motor works as expected.

TIL of Python's `math.isclose()` which allows you to determine if two values are close, given a tolerance.

You can provide relative tolerance which takes into account the magnitude of the numbers. You can also provide an absolute tolerance.

I find Color.review tool very useful when choosing colors. Most tools I used in the past, let you know whether the colors you chose are compliant with WCAG AA and AAA levels. This tool let's you visually understand how far you are from achieving these levels, and easily choose a color that is compliant.

I chose accessible colors according to the WCAG (2.1) AA contrast levels.

Check it out and let me know if you have any feedback of suggestions.
