The latest pilot release of MicroBlocks has initial support for Innova's new ESP32 STEAMaker S3 board (SD, userLED, button A). A lot of work to do.
The latest pilot release of MicroBlocks adds support for the Elecfreaks Nezha for ESP32 board. Remember that it is still a pilot release.

Josep from the MicroBlocks team is working on a PU Robot library for MicroBlocks. Here a little demo of a dancing PU robot responding to the volume of a song.
A new MicroBlocks team member has arrived. Say hello to Sam McHardy.
We like to tell everyone about a very cool feature added by Sam McHardy, block search. You can then enter a word that would appear on the block. It searches for the word both in the built-in block palette and in all of the built-in libraries. This is a super useful feature. Thanks, Sam!
