Playground Express Projects

Some of my projects with the Adafruit Playground Express

Set up

Clone the repository, create a virtual environment and install the dependencies

git clone git@github.com:mmartinortiz/playground-express-projects.git
cd playground-express-projects
python3 -m venv venv
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

Note: On Ubuntu 20.04, if you have an error when installing PyGame, install these dependencies:

sudo apt install -y libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev libsdl1.2-dev libportmidi-dev

Get the last release of CircuitPython and install it following Adafruit's instructions.

Open mu-editor from the command line once the Playground Express is connected to the comptuter, and copy the code of any of the projects into the code.py file of the Mu Editor.
