Issue 17 — HackSpace magazine is here! @HackSpaceMag

HackSpace Magazine 17

Issue 17 — HackSpace magazine is here! This issue features Arduino and has some great Adafruit products & projects too!

Arduino is more than a company; it’s an ecosystem, a movement, and a state of mind. It’s hundreds of microcontroller boards that all run the same code, it’s libraries for almost any hardware a hobbyist is likely to come across, and it’s a range of development environments for different ranges of experience. For many people, the word Arduino is almost interchangeable with microcontrollers. This issue, we take a look at exactly what this all means in our cover feature.

Perhaps the most interesting recent development in Arduino is the Arduino IoT Cloud, which aims to make it easy to develop secure, robust Internet of Things appliances. We take a look at how all this works, by exploring the features and creating our own IoT lamp. If you’d rather use a different environment, we’re also looking at CircuitPython, with Sophy Wong’s Flappy Birds outfit, which is quite possibly the best games controller ever made.
