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 feed dashboard 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.

Whether you’ve used Actions before or not, this guide will get you up to speed using Blockly Actions to power up your Adafruit IO Project!

🆕 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.

If you’re a current Adafruit Free IO user, an Adafruit IO Plus (paid) user, or have previously used Adafruit IO in the last year, we want to hear from you! Follow these instructions to learn how to submit feedback >>>
