NEW GUIDE: John Park’s Mini iPad Pinball Table with Gemma M0 @adafruit @johnedgarpark #adafruit
Want to become a pinball wizard in the comfort of your own home? With the new Mini iPad Pinball Table learning guide, you can! Simply wire arcade buttons to the Gemma M0 which can be programmed in CircuitPython as a USB HID device to control any iCade compatible game on iOS. Plus, you can build your own stylish, rugged mini table using slotted aluminum extrusion.! And, no soldering is required, just plug and play!
Look, no soldering! And no Arduino IDE, simply program the CircuitPython code with any text editor and save the code to the Gemma M0, which shows up as a USB drive!
Constructing the table from aluminum extrusion and hardware is a lot like building a kit! Plus, you can modify it to meet your exact needs.
You can also check out the live stream for more details, and fun metal cutting action.

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.
