Adafruit is celebrating Lunar New Year🐍 Wednesday 1/29/2025. In combination with MLKDay, shipping could be delayed. Please allow extra time for your order to ship!
Boldport Club now has over 500 active members! That’s 500 people the world over receiving the soldering projects that we design and manufacture every month in London. It’s certainly reason to celebrate and reflect.
We shipped Pease, our first project, mid-March 2016. By then we already had an astonishing 170 members who were confident enough that we will deliver interesting projects. We’ve had strong growth in 2016 and gained a net of 100 members in 2017.
…
We have members from all over the world; most are from the US. In the US, California is where most members are. In total we’ve shipped 22 projects in about 8300 packages.

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.
