The Factory | Micropython In An Uno Footprint

💡 We've a bunch more prototypes to discuss this week in #TheFactory. We're coming face-to-face with the challenges of backwards compatibility: Fitting a 3.3V MicroPython board into the footprint of the 5V Uno. We're also migrating to KiCad 6 with quality of life improvements and panelisation now just a plugin away! We look at a tiny Makerverse Class-D amplifier and test jig, perfect for adding a low power and footprint audio solution to your project, and finally we talk the early development stages of a MicroPython E-textiles & wearables line, let us know your thoughts on the features.
