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.

Do you care to show us the project you used to test your GPS receivers? I think this would be great for basic geocached goodness. I guess that;s the ones in the photos… maybe toss something on github 🙂
kevin, we’ll have a tutorial soon with code and wiring.
bob, we don’t think so, the ethernet shield is very tall! you -might- be able to do it if you cut down the over-long header pins but even then its probably too tall.

Is it possible to use with ethernet shield, of course with some cut in black plastic.

having a single-piece enclosure keeps the price low and manufacturability high – especially for small niche items like this!
