Adafruit IO New Feature: Quick Help @adafruitio #IoT
Need help getting started with Adafruit IO? Not sure what feeds are? Need a place to ask questions, but there are too many links on the internet? The Adafruit IO Team has added a new help menu directly into Adafruit IO with mini-guides designed to help you through any questions you could have about Adafruit IO, such as…
How do I get started with Python? Follow the new Getting Started with Adafruit IO Python mini-guide…
or “What is metadata, and how does it relate to my Adafruit IO Project?”
Still have more questions? Having an issue with your code? We’ve also added links to our Discord Chatroom and the Adafruit IO Forum to the Quick Help menu – no googling necessary!

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.
