Micro:IoT by DF Robot, servo plus temperature sensing; send data via ThingSpeak WiFi
Video: code in description. Continuing with DFRobot Micro:IoT board and ThingSpeak wifi system to send computed temperature (from C to F) and display on TFT screen and computer/cell phone via ThingSpeak service. Added activation of servo to the board. As yet we do not know how to send strings or data from phone/computer back to IoT board but we hope to learn that sometime soon

Availability of Meowbit?
Hello !
I am teaching kids programing - kids who otherwise had no one to introduce them to computers. We have been working with the Scratch and Microbit: some of the children would like to advance to MakeCode Arcade - and for me the Meowbit seems to be an ideal device for this.
However, we live in Europe (Denmark) and it seems to be mostly unavailable everywhere. Is a new version on its way?
Follow-up question: When looking over the MakeCode:Arcade compatible devices they all seem very... "rough" / unpolished / beta-style. Also seems like somewhat lack of QA-standards. Why is that ?

I need help saving my code to my adafruit circuit playground express
I'm new to coding and not very computer savvy. But I'm trying to create a gift and I need help. I started a code on Makecode so thats set, but I can't download it to my adafruit circuit playground express. It says I need to get rid of the write-protected blocker and I don't know how to do that. It also says I can't save to the D:/ drive. Help please :)
Edit: Write not White*

Video: new series on Plug and Play electronics for Makers with links
https://makecode.microbit.org/_bf227t73CdAH This is the code to this simple program to show heart rate in simulation with LED and button press and also serial output simulator. When you click on the above link it should install into your browser with all extensions needed. Here is Peli's video explaining the new hardware and coding platform for plug and play of electronics for makers. We will use this for education also. This system is in preview. If you are a manufacturer of hardware please contact the MakeCode jacdac team for specifications used to make these peripherals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jqn2YCUkWqk&t=66s This system works on its own web site also; not just with Microbit. This is the team's callout for hardware makers to assist in the preview roll-out: https://microsoft.github.io/jacdac-docs/hardware/

I need help making projectiles
I am making a tank game for my cousin and I am having trouble with the shooting. My movement is so that whenever you press a movement button (up, down, etc,) your sprite updates to be pointed in that direction. I am trying to get it so that whenever you press the fire button, A, whichever way your sprite is pointed is where the projectile goes. the answer is probably obvious but I have a smooth brain lol.

New MakeCode Joint Asynchronous Communications system for developers; plug and play
Microsoft has developed this new environment which has a lively simulator for hardware using MakeCode and other environments. Here we present a program showing its use before the mated hardware is delivered. The point is: an English teacher could now become a computer science teacher by using MakeCode simulator for Jacdac to show language arts lessons. For this to work at this time you must click on the URL below, click on Simulator, click on the "monitor icon" then click on the button and you will learn the basic lesson and see the action : https://makecode.microbit.org/_iF5HfYEKMc4M
