SpaceWing: a portable device for location and inertial information, built from Adafruit Featherwings
A portable device for location and inertial information, built from Adafruit FeatherWings (plus some other stuff).
We are working on a project the involves using GPS for anchoring an augmented reality experience. As part of this development, I wanted a device that I could use to hack on for various things, including most of the positional sensors available in smartphones. To get what I wanted, I need GPS, a 9 DoF (accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer), and pressure/altitude. I also wanted the device to have its own display, plus Bluetooth connectivity so I could offload the sensors readings to

Various CircuitPython libraries that I am developing or maintaining
I am developing or maintaining these CircuitPython libraries:
- CircuitPython_QwiicTwist - driver for the SparkFun Qwiic Twist, an I2C/Qwiic/STEMMA QT indexed RGB rotary encoder breakout
- CircuitPython_QwiicButton - driver for the SparkFun Qwiic Button Breakout, SparkFun Qwiic Button - Red LED, and SparkFun Qwiic Button - Green LED, a series I2C/Qwiic/STEMMA QT pushbutton breakouts
- CircuitPython_Trill - driver for the Trill series of I2C capacitive touch sensors
All of these are based on the [Adafruit CircuitPython Library Cookiecutter](https://learn.adafruit.com/creating-and-sharing-a-circuitpython-library/creatin

Cross-platform development frameworks for mobile and desktop
Over the past few years, the old "write once, run anywhere" mantra has gotten a refresh. The broad adoption of mobile devices has increased the need for solutions that allow developers to write core application code and UI in a single framework, and package that code for deployment. The following are some of the more popular cross-platform, modile-friendly frameworks for various languages.
Some of these solutions are hybrid frameworks, which provided containers for non-native app code and integrations with native features. Others compile to native code.
For a good rundown on the architecture and considerations in using hybrid platforms, take a look at Comparing Cross-Platform Frameworks.

Snaking around on tiny computers with Python, CircuitPython, and MicroPython
Python is a great language for development. Microcontrollers are wonderful for physical computing. What's better than either one alone? Both together!
The good news is there's growing support for using Python on microcontrollers, both as programming language off-board and directly interpreted on embedded hardware.
Based on MicroPython, CircuitPython was created by Adafruit for its boards, and is intended to provide a easy to use, consistent interface across multiple microcontrollers. It also has an extensive library/driver bundle.
