Automatic download to micro:bit V2

When the editor does not detect a micro:bit connected to the computer, it will automatically prompt you with instructions on how to connect (requires WebUSB).

Once your micro:bit V2 is paired, the web editor will be able to download your MicroCode program to your micro:bit. This happens on every edit, so your program is always up-to-date (and running)!

If your micro:bit disconnects, you will see a micro:bit icon show up on the upper left corner of the editor. Click on that button to reconnect again.
