# About
|
||||
|
||||
Welcome to the **Microsoft MakeCode** editor for the **@boardname@**!
|
||||
|
||||
## Programming: [Blocks](/blocks) or [JavaScript](/javascript)
|
||||
|
||||
You can program the @boardname@ using [Blocks](/blocks) or [JavaScript](/javascript) in your web browser:
|
||||
|
||||
```block
|
||||
input.buttonA.onEvent(ButtonEvent.Click, () => {
|
||||
light.showRing(`blue blue blue blue blue blue blue blue blue blue`)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
input.buttonA.onEvent(ButtonEvent.Click, () => {
|
||||
light.showRing(`blue blue blue blue blue blue blue blue blue blue`)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The editor work in [most modern browsers](/browsers), work [offline](/offline) once loaded and do not require any installation.
|
||||
|
||||
## [Compile and Flash: Your Program!](/device/usb)
|
||||
|
||||
When you have your code ready, you connect your @boardname@ to a computer via a USB cable
|
||||
**then press the reset button** so it appears as a mounted drive (named **CPLAYBOOT**).
|
||||
|
||||
Compilation to machine code from [Blocks](/blocks) or [JavaScript](/javascript) happens in the browser. You save the binary
|
||||
program to a **.uf2** file, which you then copy to the **CPLAYBOOT** drive, which flashes the device with the new program.
|
||||
|
||||
## Simulator: Test Your Code
|
||||
|
||||
You can run your code using the micro:bit simulator, all within the confines of a web browser.
|
||||
The simulator has support for the LED screen, buttons, as well as compass, accelerometer, and digital I/O pins.
|
||||
|
||||
```sim
|
||||
loops.forever(() => {
|
||||
light.pixels.showAnimation(light.animation(LightAnimation.Rainbow), 1000)
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```package
|
||||
light
|
||||
```
