NEW GUIDE: Spy Theme Playback Device @adafruit @johnedgarpark #adafruit
Here’s just what you’ll need as you begin your sneaky adventures with AdaBox 007, we present the Spy Theme Playback Device! Set the mood with some classic spy movie and TV themes using a Circuit Playground Express or Gemma M0 (or any CircuitPython capable Adafruit board!).
Note: AdaBox 007 live will be happening on YouTube, Twitch, Periscope, and Facebook. Be sure to tune in on April 3rd, 9pm EST — more info coming soon.
In this new guide, you’ll learn three different methods of writing music for your devices — MakeCode, CircuitPython’s RTTTL (Ringtone Text Transfer Language) library, and pulsio tone.
Press the button A (the left one) on this MakeCode simulator to get a taste of the sweet tunes you make!
Adafruit publishes a wide range of writing and video content, including interviews and reporting on the maker market and the wider technology world. Our standards page is intended as a guide to best practices that Adafruit uses, as well as an outline of the ethical standards Adafruit aspires to. While Adafruit is not an independent journalistic institution, Adafruit strives to be a fair, informative, and positive voice within the community – check it out here: adafruit.com/editorialstandards
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.
