So you may have heard of the Adafruit FunHouse and you want to get started with building a project using CircuitPython. As the name implies, the FunHouse was designed to make House or Home Automation fun. The FunHouse library makes it really easy to get started with creating a new project, using this board, but it also supports a variety of other hardware pieces to make creating projects. It also makes it very easy to interface with Home Automation software or create a standalone project. The FunHouse doesn’t need to be used as a Home Automation project either. Use your imagination and create something with the available features.
This library is built on top of the PortalBase library, which in turn is built on top of displayio which is included as part of CircuitPython. It also makes use of the ESP32-S2 wifi module, along with some lower-level dependencies, to communicate with server over the internet.
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 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
