  • Scroll to the bottom of the page
  • click "Last": note that there are (currently) 64 pages!
  • Find an interesting project to share
• We are starting with the Adafruit Circuit Playground Bluefruit
  • Guides
• What we're going to do:
  • update the software on the board (CircuitPython and libraries)
  • install software on your computer so you can write and load software that will run on the board ("Mu")
  • program the board's buttons/switches/sensors/touch/lights/sound/etc
  • control with a phone

• Getting started: Primary CPB learning guide

• Try all the things: Circuit Playground Made Easy

• phone communications:
  • Bluefruit LE Connect
  • Bluefruit Playground App
• Adafruit IO
  • requires network connection (e.g. WiFi or Cellular - CPB doesn't have)
  • capability examples
• what would you like to be able to do next?
  • system diagrams

• Next steps: Circuit Python Essentials
