masterbranch).
It has been long time since Micropython v1.12 was released and it’s not clear when next version will be released. Micropythonmasterbranch is fairly stable and contains many fixes and new features which are now available with LVGL.
Migrating from v.6
v.7 is not backward compatible with v.6, and requires migrating the code.

- The style system was completely re-written, and fully available on Micropython.
- LVGL structs on Micropython now have function members.
For example,disp_drv.register()instead oflv.disp_drv_register(disp_drv))
