 Run Server on Pimoroni Badger 2040 w to display Text

The Pimoroni Badger 2040 was already cool, but the wifi version is
even cooler.

Would it not be cool to have a server running on the badger? What
would be possible?

To try it out I just build a simple script that runs a webserver on
the pico, displays the local adress on boot and then you can send a
get request to show a text you like on the display. This setup is
very basic but powerfull. You could use this get request from any
other device or in your smart home setup. I use it from Node Red
after a specific flow to show the status on the badger.

 How does it work?

Well there is another cool library from pimoroni here on Github that
makes this a simple task: phew! It has all you need to set up a
webserver on the raspberry pico and so also on the badger 2040 w.

 Install

 1. Set up the badger as described here
 2. In Thonny load the phew! library by clicking Tools -> Manage
    packages and searching for micropython-phew
 3. Replace wifi_ssid= "XXX" and wifi_pw = "XXX" in txtsrv.py with
    your wifi data
 4. Connect the badger with your computer. Double click examples to
    go in that directory. Load the script txtsrv.py and the
    icon-txtsrv.jpg to the badger example directory with Thonny
    (upload to /examples)
 5. Disconnect and boot again

 Use

When badger is up and running you see a SRV icon. If you start that
app the led is goes on. On the display the URL is shown where you can
send the text.

 Further development

The display is very basic -> can be improved The badger could run in
access point mode if running in lan is not wanted
