Is there a new guide on the Adafruit Learning System? Glance over at this attention-grabbing Matrix Portal New Guide scroller. Every hour, this project fetches the latest guides from the Adafruit Learning System and displays them on the Matrix Portal.
You’ll use CircuitPython and the Adafruit Matrix Portal to fetch JSON data from the Adafruit Learning System’s public API, parse the data, and display it scrolling across a RGB Matrix.
This internet-connected project can easily be adapted to a REST API of your choice to scroll data of your choice: negative COVID-19 tests, sports scores, positive news headlines, or stock prices
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
