It's not all games (but still lots of fun) when we take a look at other kinds of software written for the Fruit Jam. An homage to Atari Video Music, a video overlay Chyron, even a fully functional IRC client await.

The beauty of running software directly on Fruit Jam

Unlike an emulator, which tries to "fool" a program or game made for another hardware platform to run on Fruit Jam, you can run programs which are written specifically to work on Fruit Jam directly.

Most of the programs are written in CircuitPython and are open source. This means you can go into the source code and change things to suit your style. Or write your own! In CircuitPython, you can have code running in just a few minutes with just a text editor. See the Welcome to CircuitPython guide to start.
