Programming the PyGamer console
The PyGamer console can be programmed in three ways:
- MakeCode Arcade - represents the easiest to use startup program. Recommended for novice users who are taking their first steps in console programming. MakeCode Arcade allows the user to create their own games through block programming.
- CircuitPython - is a support for a wide range of sensors, allows you to create custom graphics, play wave files, and allows you to create text in any font.
- Arduino IDE - the most powerful and advanced development environment. The manufacturer provides Adafruit Arcada library for Arduino.
