Microbits #103

Open acbart opened 3 years ago

acbart commented 3 years ago

Apparently Microbits are popular. Perhaps we should support them.

I have no idea what that means, but it sounded good!

An interesting idea. I use Micro:bit a few times in my intro class to make the code "come to life". Specifically, in my conditionals and iteration units.

Here is Microsoft's MakeCode for Micro:bit repo which allows blocks, TypeScript, or Python: https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-microbit

Probably more adaptable for our purposes, EduBlocks has Micro:bit support on their platform: https://github.com/AllAboutCode
