New Guide: Steven Universe Cosplay Shirt & Gem #StevenUniverse #AdafruitLearningSystem #CircuitPlaygroundExpress #MakeCode @MSMakeCode @CartoonNetwork
Make yourself a Steven Universe costume that will light up the world. This guide will show you how to make your own extra-sparkly handmade star T-shirt and Steven’s gem. When you get all excited, the gem will light up and sparkle! It attaches to your body under the shirt, so you can flash your sparkly gem at bystanders and get them excited too.
This is a great beginner project. The code is done in MakeCode, Microsoft’s drag-and-drop editor, and is easy to customize to respond to sounds or motion or button presses. No soldering required! It’s all done with easy to find materials you can find at a drug store or craft store.. and of course, a Circuit Playground Express.

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.
