WipperSnapper Updates Wednesday: Updated Actions, ItsyBitsy ESP32, and more!
Since the last publication of WipperSnapper Updates Wednesday, the Adafruit IO team has been hard at work bringing you new features, sensors, hardware, and more.
Let’s take a look at what’s going on:
📖 How to use Blockly for Actions on Adafruit IO
While you can build just about any kind of IoT device or project with Adafruit IO’s feeddashboard functionality, you can add a little more logic and integration using Actions. In Adafruit IO, Actions are a way to do something when a certain situation occurs. We’ve built a custom Blockly App to allow easy creation and editing of Actions on Adafruit IO.
🆕 Welcome the ItsyBitsy ESP32 to Adafruit.io and WipperSnapper
What’s the second smallest board available for use with WipperSnapper, sporting all the features and pins you could ask for yet still oh so tiny? Why it’s the ItsyBitsy ESP32 of course! Newly added this week, with accompanying docs pages in the board Learn Guide showing off the WipperSnapper Essentials to get you started in a breeze.
📚 Usage Documentation for WipperSnapper Components
Documentation for the Win! All the I2C components now have their respective WipperSnapper guide page added to the product Learn Guides and handily linked from the Component Picker dialog. We’ve also added guide pages for the other components where possible, although a few link to more general guides (like the NeoPixel Uber Guide).
📣 Adafruit IO in 2024: Help us Shape Development!
Inspired by Scott’s blog post, CircuitPython 2024, the developers and designers on the Adafruit IO team are requesting feedback (from you!) to help guide our development of Adafruit IO in 2024.
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!
