Loading PiicoDev

Trying to run piico ultrasonic on RPi3 running Bookworm:
I am unable to install the piicodev package from PyPI → piicodev is not found.
Followed the video but the search for piicodev comes up with nothing???
Tried all sorts of pip apt variations - nada.
Any help appreciated.

Everyone can relax. All sorted - I’ve worked it out through sheer persistence and comprehensive Googling.

Is PiicoDev on Pip or another package manager?
Last time I had to download and push it it onto the pico manually?

I had to “pip install” the Piicodev package via terminal into my Virtual environment (Thonny method couldn’t find it??)
I’m a newbie so I’m feeling my way.

There was an update in thonny recently that addressed the issue of packages not being searchable, you may be on an old version if nothing appears when you’re searching for it,

Aha! I’ll check and do an update.
Thanks.
