CircuitPython Day – 9/9/2020 – join in the activities! #CircuitPythonDay #CircuitPython #Python @Adafruit
Adafruit has chosen September 9, 2020 (9/9/2020) as the snakiest day this year for CircuitPython Day! This day highlights all things CircuitPython and Python on Hardware.
Projects using CircuitPython will be highlighted in the days leading up to CircuitPython Day. Tag your projects #CircuitPython and #CircuitPythonDay and Adafruit will look to highlight them.
September 9th
On September 9th, a host of events are currently planned (all times US Eastern):
11am-noon Special Central American / Spanish Show and Tell
2pm-3:30pm CircuitPython Weekly Discord Meeting
4pm-5pm Jeff and Kattni CircuitPython Project Livestream

Your Participation
Are you interested in having your group/makerspace participate? Please do so! We are already in talks with several groups in helping them.
If you have a project – plan on being on the Show & Tell pr post them on social media tagging us.
Let us know what you have planned and we’ll help and promote. Contact [email protected] with your plans. There is also a planning schedule on GitHub here you can post a Pull Request to add your information.
Adafruit publishes a wide range of writing and video content, including interviews and reporting on the maker market and the wider technology world. Our standards page is intended as a guide to best practices that Adafruit uses, as well as an outline of the ethical standards Adafruit aspires to. While Adafruit is not an independent journalistic institution, Adafruit strives to be a fair, informative, and positive voice within the community – check it out here: adafruit.com/editorialstandards
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.
