Meet Digi-Key in the Adafruit Discord server all month! #askdigikey #makewithdigikey #digikeydiscord @digikey
For the month of June, hang out with Digi-Key in the Adafruit Discord server! (http://adafru.it/digikeydiscord) Digi-Key, Adafruit, and the maker/pro-engineer community will come together to discuss: electronics, Digi-Key & Adafruit history, and more!
Tune in June 7th at 8:00 PM EDT for our first event, “Meet Digi-Key”. A few of our friends from the Digi-Key staff will be there to introduce themselves and tell you about their company and how Digi-Key fits into the maker ecosystem and community. During the chat we’ll also have a live video, stay tuned for the link!
We’re huge fans of Digi-Key at Adafruit (we buy stuff from them all the time & they’re one of the top Adafruit distributors). In addition to great discussions, they’ll be running promotions, giveaways and more, so please tune in!
If you miss the first event, don’t worry! We’ll be having Digi-Key back for more events the rest of the month:
Thursdays at 8PM EDT:
June 14th
June 21st
June 28th
July 12th
The channel will be open all month and we want to hear from you. Please come with questions, comments, or just to say hi! See you there!

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.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
