On 2/23/19 I taught my first “Introduction to Python” workshop at Ocean State Maker Mill . What a great experience getting a chance to interact with everyone that attended. The class slides and code are available on GitHub .
Introduction to Python using: Adafruit CircuitPython & Circuit Playground Express This workshop is designed to be a fun introduction to the Python language and micro-controllers. This is a hands on interactive workshop! Over 3 hours we will explore programming concepts with Python while we implement a project to translate sound into a colorful light display. This is a beginner class, no prior programming experience is needed. We will cover: - How to install CircuitPython on the Circuit Playground Express -
The other MicroPython ESP32 APA102/Dotstar library was written by me. At the time I started the project I didn’t know that Matt was working on his library. In any case I needed a working APA102/DotStar library for a project using MicroPython 1.9.4. so I wrote one! At this point my library is probably only of historical interest.
