I am currently learning #Python and have a few devices that use either #MicroPython or #CircuitPython but I think the device that has the most potential is the #adafruit#pygamer. It boasts an extremely powerful #SAMD51 MCU and a whopping 192K RAM amongst a host of other nice little treats like a microSD slot, a really nice screen, 1w speaker (very loud!), 350mah LiPo and charging circuit using microusb and is laid out like the perfect #TinyGames device! It can run circuitpython, #arduino and it works with #makecodearcade!
I managed to grab a handful of these (thank you beautiful gf, I pay you back) from #digikey last month when I saw their stock had dropped from somewhere around 60+ units to 19. Thankfully my gf could lend me the money and now I have the brains of ALL my future #electronics projects!! I am an extremely lucky cat!
I learn best by doing! Having concrete, real world examples to experience first hand is key to me teaching myself how to code.
I am excited to share this #SelfTaught journey with the fediverse and I hope to meet some like minded individuals!
Is there anyone out there who is attempting to teach themselves programming by themselves? I'm sure I'm doing things inefficiently but I'm okay with that. I'm having a lot of fun so far and with time I will be creating some very fun tiny games using circuitpython mostly. #SoloDev
