Micro:Bit hardware prototype/equivalent

Post by Rando » Thu Apr 28, 2016 2:30 pm

Howdy all,

I just got an email back for the UK concerning availability of the Micro:Bit here in the US, the short answer was not for a good while...

Since I have an nRF81522-DK (dev kit), and good support for the Segger J-link on my Ubuntu dev box, I was wondering if I couldn't at least experiment with adding the Micropython image to that and start to run some code? I was able to build that yesterday, after I got my feet wet with the yotta build system. I have much to learn there.

Does anyone have experience down this road to share?

Best,

R.

There's a thread about nRF52 http://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=859
Perhaps it'll be of interest to you.
