CircuitPython is Python that runs on microcontrollers. It's designed for learning and it's super simple to use. If you're new to programming or electronics, CircuitPython can help you get started with both. All you need to do is plug in a microcontroller board, open any code editor, and start editing. Participants will be provided with a Circuit Playground Express microcontroller board to use. We will be using Mu as our code editor - Mu is an editor that has the serial REPL and a plotter built in, and makes getting started with CircuitPython quite easy. This beginner-friendly tutorial will cover what CircuitPython is and why you would use it. I will discuss the community built around CircuitPython. Then we will get into working with code. There will be a series of examples that utilise the various sensors, lights and switches built into the Circuit Playground Express board. We will start simply with the CircuitPython "Hello, world!" Then we will use the plotter in Mu to graph the data live from a few of the sensors. Next, we'll begin exploring the various other inputs and sensors on the board. From there, we'll build on the concepts learned, combining them as we go to eventually build a light up, capacitive touch tone piano. All code will be provided on [GitHub](https://github.com/kattni/pyohio_2018_cp).

## Setup Instructions
