Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.

mik, funny you should mention that. we’re taking on crate renters. only $900 a month. we’ll need first, last, 2 months deposit, no pets, no sharing, guarantor… 😉
What does this mean for future products offered by Adafruit? Is it just to expedite current production, or will you guys be developing new kits/products that incorporate more surface mount components?
wow looks great!
Everything’s better when it arrives in a crate.
You look like a kid at Christmas. 🙂 Are you sure it isn’t just a fancy looking toaster oven?
Hurray! This is very exciting. And I love the name “Manncorp”. So, Mann-ly.
In NYC you can live in that crate for only 1000/month.

Ok, you either have to really love or REALLY HATE surface mount to buy one of those.
I’m thinking the cat already has title to that particular piece of real estate.
Yeah, I’m assuming that’s one “box” Mosfet will NOT let you “recycle.” I should get a crate for my cate. I sense a new AdaFruit kit coming our way!
Wow! Congratulations!
Excellent!
Do you have any new products planned?

Congratulations! Have you given it a name yet?
lol… any electronics big enough *have* to be crawled inside XD
Hah! I’m not sure what I find more amusing, the fact that she had to crawl into it, or the fact that she’d fit!
But hey, according to the manufacturer it flies! (Yeah yeah I know a bit of a bad pun…)
thats gangster
