CircuitPython is "the easiest way to program microcontrollers". If you use Arduino or know a little bit of Python, consider joining this mini workshop.

Bring a laptop with USB, any OS. Get from blink to IoT in 1.5 hours. We'll provide 10 kits to be shared — open hardware, software and materials :)

Additional slots might become available later on. Please use the waiting list!
