This week we are highlighting our distributor kjd Electronics!
We asked Kevin from kjd Electronics for a brief history:
I started kjdElectronics in 2014 while I was in my second year of college at the Rochester Institute of Technology (Go Tigers!) studying Computer Engineering. I began with the mission of providing a highly accessible selection of DIY and Engineering components in one place while providing an excellent customer experience.
Since then, I graduated RIT in December 2016 and the company has grown significantly. After graduating I have moved back to NH where I have really been able to focus on growing the company, expanding our selection, and providing great service. We do not have a customer facing office/warehouse but in the future we hope to provide an increased community impact by working with local schools to help promote a STEM curriculum early and often.
Heres a look at Kevins stock room!
Check out Adafruit products at kjd Electronics here!
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.
