About the BBC micro:bit
The micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer that you can code, customize, and control to bring your digital ideas, games, and apps to life! Programmed with Makecode, the BBC micro:bit for coding is a great introduction to experimental code making. It acts as the brain behind the InkSmith K8 Robot and Climate Action Kit.
The micro:bit Go Pack contains everything you need to get coding straight out of the box, making it the ideal starter kit.
