Things to improve for mpremote

CLI

Allow mkdir without returning errors

• mkdir -p, --parents no error if existing, make parent directories as needed

make mpremote cp folder/* :/ work on windows

# copy the src directory to the root of the ESP32 filesystem
# workaround needed for windows issue with mpremote cp -r
cd src 
mpremote resume cp -r . :/
cd ..

versus mpremote handling for bash

# copy the src directory to the root of the ESP32 filesystem
mpremote cp -r src/* :/

API

Avoid sys.exit() in any of the defined APIs

• Use exceptions instead
• This allows the caller to handle the error gracefully instead of terminating the program

Avoid using print() in any of the defined APIs

• Either return a value
• or pass a print/log function as oneof the parameters to the API/framework
