Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Thoughts on a machine?
As another point for those interested, it (to my knowledge) is currently the ONLY implementation of a scoring machine that the firmware for the device is written in Circuit Python. which gives this unit an advantage when it comes to any and all multi tasking that the unit may need to do.

Unveiling secrets of the ESP32: creating an open-source Mac layer
The barrier to entry has never been lower. Last night I prototyped some code in Python on my Mac to talk to a Bluetooth peripheral, and then had ChatGPT translate it to Arduino C++ code for a $5 ESP32 which mostly worked on the first go.
You can even run Python on microcontrollers these days. See Adafruit's https://circuitpython.org for which they publish modules for many (almost all?) of the sensors they sell. The modern microcontroller frameworks hide much of the complexity of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, filesystems, etc. so you can do complicated things with minimal effort. You can really cobble something together in an afternoon.

ALT.CTRL.GameCraft Workshop @ Beta Festival Write-up
The Pico runs CircuitPython and uses Adafruit's HID library to emulate a keyboard. It's also possible to emulate a mouse and a gamepad (there are some experiments for gamepad emulation in experiments).
- CircuitPython added supports for Makerdiary nRF52840 Connect Kit

HT1632c library for circuitpython
Asked your question in the adafruit discord and they said there's no HT1632c library for circuit python yet. There is a library for micropython. You can request to have it ported from the Micropython library I linked to by opening a feature request in the Circuit Python Github. That would be your best option for now or attempt to port the library yourself.

This may be an odd question but can someone give me a Tl;dr of the Adafruit ecosystem between 2019-now?
Microcontrollers can run Python now https://circuitpython.org/

Projects for newbs!
I'm aware of two versions of Python for microcontrollers. Micro Python and Circuit Python

Pause and resume more than one audiofile with audiocore
I tried to look in https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/tree/main/shared-bindings at audiocore, audioio, an audiomixer looking for a way to access the sample counter manually but I have no clue what I'm looking at :(

Pico W only connects to Wi-Fi once, then needs uf2 nuke
Try CircuitPython 8.0.3. The commit log has a couple networking changes for the Pico. My MQTT client seems to have fewer connection issues though they could be a fluke https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/compare/8.0.2...8.0.3

- STARFIELD:Sooooooo the Founder's watch is just Bangle 1 Open Source?
- Firmware changelog?
-
Gadgetbridge is an Android application for your smart watch and other devices
The Bangle.js 2 is an excellent device. As a former Pebble user, this is the first device that I consider an adequate replacement for my Pebble (which by now has a diminished battery life and corroded charging contacts).
Here is my impression of the Bangle.js 2:
- Battery: Lasts about 3 weeks on a charge, constantly connected to my phone, when the watch is used to display notifications and alarms. This is a major advantage over Apple Watches and Android/Wear OS watches.
- Display and buttons: The 1.3" 8-color transflective display is comparable to the Pebble Time series' 64-color transflective display. The display is always on, and the backlight activation is highly configurable. The Bangle.js 2 has a touchscreen and 1 button, while Pebble watches have no touchscreen and 3 buttons.
- Software: Runs on the completely free and open source Espruino JavaScript interpreter,[1] which was my main motivation for purchasing this device. There are currently 336 apps in the web-based Bangle.js app loader (app store), including utilites and clocks (watch faces), all of which are FOSS. The bootloader and firmware can be updated directly from the app loader. On Android, there is a distribution of Gadgetbridge (built from the same code base as Gadgetbridge) with internet access enabled that integrates the Bangle.js app loader into Gadgetbridge, which makes it very easy to use the watch.[2]
- Build: Built on the same device body as the SMA Q3.[3] The casing is plastic, and the watch is compatible with standard 20 mm watch straps. The IP67 water/dust resistance makes the watch usable for sports.
Overall, I highly recommend the Pebble.js 2 watch, which is the best FOSS-focused watch I have found to date.
