With the publication of Scratch 3 hardware extensions for the Picoboard and Circuit Playground Express, the s3oneGpio Scratch 3 extensions project has come to a close (well, for a while at least).
The New Extension Blocks
The Picoboard Blocks
The Circuit Playground Express (CPX) Blocks
Pymata-cpx
In addition to the Scratch 3 extensions, a Python API library was developed to help support the CPX Scratch extension. This API provides a simple to use Python interface for users who wish to reach beyond Scratch programming and to try physical computing with user-friendly hardware.
What’s Next
I have been playing with Arcade and have been experimenting with integrating Python Banyan with Arcade. The goal is to create a multi-player game that may be distributed across computers. Each player would play the game on their individual computers and connected via Banyan across a LAN. Stay tuned for any progress.
