Programming with the help of Makecode

The console supports programming using block programming languages like Scratch, Makecode or Kittenblock (special for this platform). Their use is intuitive and allows school children to move freely between commands and create even complex combinations. Creating in a flowchart involves moving blocks symbolizing specific programming actions in the right order to achieve the desired effect.

At https://arcade.makecode.com/ we can create our own program or game. There is also a wide range of tutorials available, guiding the user step by step through the creation of small applications while teaching the basics of block programming. We can also use ready-made codes to preview, analyze or simply copy them to our own device.

Question: If I connect the power from the computer (micro USB), will the Meowbit charge the battery connected by the JST? What if there is a battery in the JST without charging capability?

Answer: The console allows you to charge the battery when you connect it to the USB port of your computer. It is not recommended to connect the console with a regular battery to the USB port, as this may damage both the battery and the console.
