Micropython uses the QSTR-macros to define constant strings. This is used to
identify strings and store only unique ones for preserving memory (as it is
very limited on the PyBoard-Hardware). Your port has a file ``qstrdefsport.h``.
In our case add ``Q(hello)`` to the list (on a new line). This will define the
string ``hello`` for Micropython. Failing to do so will result in a missing
file on compilation.
very limited on the PyBoard-Hardware).
The string ``hello`` will be auto-generated by ``py/makeqstrdata.py`` upon
compilation. This may fail if a string contains special characters; In this
case, add ``Q(the_funky+string<>)`` to ``qstrdefsport.h``. Failing to do so will
result in a missing file on compilation.

Now when you compile and flash the firmware, you will be able to import the
module and call the function inside it.
