Happy Thanksgiving – Thank you from Adafruit #thanksgiving @adafruit
Happy Thanksgiving –
“Be present in all things and thankful for all things.” – Maya Angelou
Nothing is more urgent today than giving thanks, thank you Adafruit; employees, team members around the world, the community, the customers, the partners. Thank you for giving us the ability to help our team, and help with what they care about the most. Thank you for supporting what we do here together at Adafruit, sharing, working hard, working smart, being excellent to each other.
We are thankful we can build a better world together.
Thank you everyone who gives us a daily gift, the opportunity to help, to empower, and to elevate each other.
In closing, we sent out an email to our team, to anonymously send in anything they are thankful for, whoever sent this in, thank you:
I’m grateful to be part of a company that is public in its support for a greater diversity of people making things. There are too many gatekeepers in this life, I’m thankful that we are gate openers.
Thank you for inspiring us to be a good company, with good values.
Thank you,
-Ladyada & pt, 2017

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.
