El MakeCode de Microsoft para Adafruit es un editor de código basado en web para computación física. Tiene un editor de bloques, similar a Scratch o a Code.org, y también un editor de JavaScript para usuarios avanzados. ¡Pruébalo ahora en https://makecode.adafruit.com/ !
Algunas características claves de MakeCode son:
editor basado en web: no hay que instalar nada
multi platforma: trabaja en la mayoría de navegadores modernos desde un teléfono pequeño, a una pantalla táctil gigante
compilado en el navegador: el compilador corre en tu navegador, es rápido y trabaja sin conexión
bloques + JavaScript: arrastra y suelta bloques o escribe JavaScript, MakeCode te permite cambiar fácilmente entre los dos
trabaja fuera de línea: una vez que has cargado el editor, se mantiene en el caché de tu navegador
ejecución basada en evento: responda fácilmente a presionados de botón, gestos de batido y más
MakeCode por el momento trabaja con la Circuit Playground Express de Adafruit.
