MICROBIT SETUP-
This is the starting point of my MediaBit project and so far, it’s been research and light coding. This first checkpoint aka my devlog :) is all about setting up the environment for developing this project further. It took me longer than usual to figure out the libraries because I ran into some issues importing them. It was a bit of struggle to figure them out because of how rusty I was with the commands. Some minor misconfigs on git too but I got them sorted out with the help of copilot.

On the brightside I got some coding on developing the basic logic for the microbit. here is a 25 minute prog session in 23 seconds: https://lapse.hackclub.com/timelapse/_FFAEa7uCVi0

Devlog - 1
First iteration of my PCB design for the hackpad. The key takeaway of this first iteration was how I got to learn more about the software (like KiCad) and understand how the designing process works.

I found it challenging to setup the application initially like importing the care packages and figuring out how to use the symbols properly.

Despite the challenges, I got the gist of using the application and now im exploring more features like using DRC Rule Checker to ensure my design doesn’t have any issues.

Ohhh! this is my first hardware project as someone who programs more often :)
