How to use Blockly for Actions on Adafruit IO
Our No-Code / Low-Code IoT platform Adafruit IO supports dynamically triggered Actions, but the forms were lacking some love. So we've now improved the user-interface by integrating Blockly diagram based actions.
Welcome to Adafruit IO
This guide will get you up and running with Adafruit IO - the easiest way to get your project on the web. Learn what hardware is compatible with IO, how to interact with your data, troubleshooting your IO project, available client libraries, and about taking your project to the next-level with IO Plus.
AdaBox 007
This AdaBox is super sneaky with a Secret + Spy + Security theme. Everything in this box will teach you stuff they don't want you to know! You'll use your brains and hands to solve puzzles, send secret messages, bypass locks, and listen in on radio waves around you.
AdaBox 006
Feeling the bite of the cold and wind outside? Why not slither indoors and snuggle up with your very own cuddly Python? What? A snake?! Yessssssss, this AdaBox is Python powered.
AdaBox 005
You've consumed four AdaBoxes - the equivalent of a delicious, nutritious meal of DIY electronics. And now it's time for dessert.
Pour yourself some coffee (or a nice cold glass of milk) because it is finally time for Raspberry Pi.
AdaBox 004
Sit down, strap in, and pump your Feather ecosystem up to 11. The last of our Feather-focused AdaBoxes has all the ingredients for a remote controlled music player, a Zen-inducing meditation machine, or your very own Radio Free Adafruit that streams tunes through the internet.
My Mini Race Car
Zooooom! Now you can build and drive your own Mini Race Car using the Feather 32u4 Bluefruit LE microcontroller. Keep an eye on racetrack telemetry with the included HTU21D-F temperature & humidity sensor breakout board.
AdaBox 003
If walls could talk.
If fridges could email.
If toasters could tweet.
If garbage cans could blog.
If sinks could post stories.
If stoves could code.
The Internet of Things can be in all the things. Adafruit, Digikey, and Nimbus the Friendly Cloud Entity are here to help you learn how to connect everything you need and nothing you don't.
AdaBox 002
With AdaBox 002, we are bringing you the fun and versatility of a small robot. Learn how to control your new robot friend with a phone and make it sing custom tunes. Learn how to make your new robot more intelligent and independent too!
MQTT, Adafruit IO & You!
The Internet of Things! The Internet of Things! THE INTERNET OF THINGS! OK now that I've got your attention, lets talk about this INTERNET OF THINGS (IoT). IoT is this idea that, hey - my toaster! my car! my dog's collar! - all those things can be connected to the Internet and each other.
Adafruit IO Basics: NeoPixel Controller
In this basic example of ways to interact with Adafruit IO, we use an Adafruit NeoPixel ring and control the RGB levels with three sliders on an AIO dashboard.
Wireless Inductive Power Night Light
Create your own night light that harnesses the power of wireless energy. Change the brightness of the light by moving it away from the power module.
DIY DC/DC Boost Calculator
For many small projects, its cheaper and easier to DIY a boost converter than to buy a specialty chip. DIY converters are usually not as efficient but they're quick & cheap!
Adjustable Breadboard Power Supply Kit
This project details the design of a very low dropout adjustable power supply. A good power supply is essential to electronic projects. While there are many existing designs for adjustable power supplies, this one makes improvements that make it more useful for hobby designs.
All About LEDs
This tutorial will cover those wonderful blinky things, LEDs. We're also going to cover how to calculate the current going through an LED and in the mean time introduce two important laws of electronics, Kirchhoff's Voltage Law and Ohm's Law.
