Honestly I did not spend too much time on the user management part of the service. Google OAuth just came handy.
BTW tinkerdoodle.cc does not collect any user info other than the email address.

Good idea. I don't have a micro bit yet. Let me get one and do some testing.

I got a micro:bit v2, and made Tinkerdoodle work with it. Refer to https://tinkerdoodle.cc/user/_/notebook ... 0Bit.ipynb for instructions.

Haven't tried micro:bit v1 yet, but I suppose it should work as well.

Can someone who has micro:bit try it and see if there is any problem?

Specifically I found the serial REPL of micro:bit is a bit unstable. I added retry logic in Tinkerdoodle to fix the errors as much as I can. It works fine for small programs (< 100 lines of code), and may see problem in large programs.

On the other hand, the serial REPL of Raspberry Pi Pico is much better. If you have Pi Pico, feel free to follow https://tinkerdoodle.cc/user/_/notebook ... Pico.ipynb.
