Adafruit's ePaper / eInk displays come in breakout boards with standard form factors like Arduino Shield and Feather FeatherWIng. You can just snap these displays on the appropriate microcontroller and copy CircuitPython code to get information displayed on these crisp screens.

Take any short clip of music and have it automatically start playing as soon as you pick up your cane and start walking. A few lines of code add illumination to a custom face plate of your design, making the walking stick a gleaming beacon as well as a magically musical object.

Smash that button and your desktop dumpster erupts into flames. A Circuit Playground Express board paired with one servo and one DC motor make this dumpster spring to life, and is easily reprogrammed in MakeCode to take on different functions. A great beginner project, no soldering required!

Microsoft MakeCode is retro-gaming coding platform that creates cute 80's type 2D games. The games can run in the browser or on hardware. Here the focus is on building custom controllers for games running in the browser.

This robotic candy bucket shoots out a small receptacle to retrieve candy and bring it back into the bucket. Two servo motors powered by a Circuit Playground Express coded with MakeCode powers this project.

This sword's design is inspired by the Obsidian Sword in Cartoon Network's animated series "Steven Universe". The sword is made out of cardboard, ringed with lights, and has a touch sensitive handle, illuminating the lights as soon as you pick up the sword.

Hold this heart in your hand and it automatically detects your heart rate and begins to glow, pulsing in time with your heart. A Circuit Playground Express tucked away inside a 3D printed anatomical heart model uses its onboard light sensor to determine your heartbeat and illuminate a strip of neopixels to match it.

This 3D printed heart beats rhythmically, powered by a servo motor and Circuit Playground Express. This spooky installation is ready to freak out your next guests!

WebUSB is the perfect way to have unidirectional or bidirectional interaction with USB devices, especially if you are tired of having to load drivers or perform awkward keyboard emulation. Adafruit's TinyUSB brings the interaction to compatible USB connected microcontrollers.

You're monitoring your plant and want the data recorded automatically. In the past, this required some external computer. With the new Storage and Datalogger extensions in MakeCode, your data can be written to a file or can be written to a log file that is spreadsheet compatible.

When you submit your code to the CircuitPython project, it's checked for syntax. You submit a pull request with your code and wait to see if the checks pass. Wouldn't it be nice to check your code BEFORE you submit it? You can! This guide will walk you through the steps to get Pylint and Black set up locally so you can lint your own code like a pro. No more waiting for checks to fail - get it sorted before hand and save yourself the wait time!

The world takes billions of pictures a year. Why not show them off! With this simple code, you can set up a picture slideshow on your CircuitPython device with connected display in minutes.

You have your MakeCode Arcade compatible hardware and you'd like to make a simple name tag display so you can hang it around your neck. Or you want to code your first program. No problem! This guide will walk through the steps to get you there.

Less soldering, more hacking! Learn about STEMMA, STEMMA QT and how it compares and works with other systems like Qwiic, Gravity and Grove.

This DIY cardboard shark helmet is equipped with a Circuit Playground Express and a servo motor, enabling it to detect sound and start moving its jaw in response! Fun beginner coding project, great for shark week or Halloween!
