Guide Update: Which CircuitPython Board is Right for You? #Adafruit #AdafruitLearningSystem @Adafruit

There are so many Adafruit microcontrollers that are compatible with CircuitPython, choosing a board can be overwhelming. Perhaps you have a feature in mind that you’re looking for. This helps narrow it down, but there may be multiple boards with that feature. So what can you do? Check out this guide!

This guide breaks down the CircuitPython compatible Adafruit microcontrollers into feature categories. Within those categories, each board has text explaining its other features to explain why you might choose it over another board.

For example, let’s say you want a board that’s WiFi enabled. Great! But which board do you choose? Maybe a built-in display would be ideal for your WiFi project. Check out the WiFi Enabled page, scan through the boards, and get a feel for their differences. You could find that PyPortal is perfect for you!

Content Summary:
– The guide assists in selecting the right CircuitPython compatible Adafruit microcontroller board for your project by categorizing them based on features like WiFi capability, beginner-friendliness, and built-in displays.
– It provides detailed comparisons between boards within categories, such as the Circuit Playground Express and Circuit Playground Bluefruit, highlighting key differences to help make an informed choice.

Updated for the latest version of CircuitPython and newer CircuitPython compatible boards.
