Thank you for responses to forum posts for the
Music Maker Arduino shield. They helped me have confidence in a solution to
a problem with the VS1053’s player_simple example. …
Also, thank you for the random quotes at the bottom of each web page.
I’m going to take the one to heart when organizing next year’s Burning Man
camp (it seems to be good, general management advice): “If you want to build
a ship, don’t drum up people to collect wood and don’t assign them tasks
and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the
sea” – Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
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.
