    Hi –

    I just got my first GEMMA + NeoPixel project up and running. I’m loving it, but I have a couple questions:

    1. What would you suggest for debugging GEMMA projects since there’s no Serial capability?

    2. I thought of building some kind of interface in Processing; what’s the best way to connect a Processing sketch to GEMMA? Would I need to wire some kind of interface to GEMMA’s open pins, or is there a way to use the USB connection?

    Thanks!

    Bill
