Micro:bit programming

As a bit of an update to the BBC Micro:bit post from the 6th August 2016

In the post I mention some resources for programming the Micro:bit, here I have added some additional resources.

The Micro:bit SBC can be programmed from applications running within a web browser

• BBC's official site (https://www.microbit.co.uk/create-code)
• Microsoft PXT coding general site (https://www.pxt.io/)
• Microsoft PXT site for BBC Micro:bit  (https://codethemicrobit.com/)

Additionally there is an App from Samsung to programme the Micro:bit from an Android phone 

• Samsung & Micro:bit (http://www.samsung.com/uk/microbit/?cid=uk_affiliate_webgains_54264_20160807&source=webgains_uk)

For the Apple fans

• Apple and Micro:bit (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/micro-bit/id1092687276?mt=8)

Also Microsoft are developing a Windows 10 App to access the Micro:bit

Additional resources

Lancaster University have a number of resources on using and programming the Micro:bit, they are responsible for creating and writing the BBC micro:bit runtime. And have C\C++ tools that can be used to programme all the features of the board.

ARMmbed are also a partner and have resources that work with the other partners including Lancaster University

As I find other resources I will update this post
