I just wanted to say thanks for being around and doing what you guys do. I
have only been making things for a couple years. Adafruit has taught me so
much and I still have so much more to learn. I was able to recently take
what I learned and created a customized Pi Grrl Zero. It took me about 3
months to complete in between a busy school semester and finding extra time
to work on it. Though it isn’t anything ground breaking, I’m still proud to
be able to call is my own. Please give my thanks to everyone at Adafruit,
you give me the tools and inspiration to make my imagination a reality :)…
P.S.S. Hugs to everyone at Adafruit 🙂

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.
