Adafruit Circuit Playground Express Library

The board is round and has alligator clip pads around it so you don t have to solder or sew to make it work.

Adafruit circuit playground express library.

We ve taken the original circuit playground classic and made it even better. Adafruit circuit playground express is a high level library that provides objects that represent circuitplayground hardware. In the arduino ide navigate to sketch include library manage libraries. To learn more about all the features of this library check out the circuitpython made easy on circuit playground express and bluefruit guide on the adafruit learn system.

Then the library manager will open and you will find a list of libraries that are already installed or ready for. The circuit playground express or cpx and the circuit playground bluefruit or cpb have all kinds of sensors buttons switches and leds built into them to top it off they work with circuitpython normally using circuitpython with a button or sensor requires setup in your code. The circuit playground library is available on the adafruit github website. Sometimes this means one line of code.

But what s nice is that arduino ide comes with a version of the library and its super easy to update. Arduino is essentially c c with a built in library of hardware interfaces. Before you can use the circuit playground library with the circuit playground bluefruit you must install the library and the modules it depends on. Not only did we pack even more sensors in we also made it even easier to program.

Circuit playground library details. Arduino is the third and oldest of the progamming languages supported by circuit playground express. Follow the steps found on the installing circuitpython libraries on circuit playground bluefruit section in the circuit playground bluefruit guide to get all the necessary libraries installed. We recommend updating the library even if you just installed the arduino ide we have constant updates.

For a detailed explanation of how the circuit playground library functions see the technical side page of the circuitpython made easy on circuit playground express and bluefruit guide.
