Over the last 6 years, I’ve written 18620 answers our forum here at PJRC, and many more on numerous other forums. During this time, we’ve managed to grow a pretty good forum community and help many thousands of people with projects.
I watched and tried to learn which what has worked and how we might improve. One thing that’s become very clear is so many people need a little guidance on how to best ask their questions. It’s not the technical nature, but these subtle human factors that matter most.
My hope is to see all tech forums improve. Please, share this article.

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 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
