“A very accessible introduction to embedded software. Can be programmed initially via scratch, so is immediately accessible for younger children, but also supports Python for older children with more experience. Very easy to download own code via USB and run simple programs. I like the inclusion of Bluetooth, so if you purchase multiple Micro:Bits, you can get them to communicate wirelessly. All good fun, but a practical introduction to embedded systems.”
“Everything you need to get started. Well built, easy to code and flash. Built a kind of tamagotchi and it's really good fun. Looking forward to being more adventurous .. nice to see ther are lots of third party accessories.”
