Trynkit was a really neat project to build. Unfortunately we had to shut it down due to supply chain issues from COVID, but building it was quite the journey I’ll never forget. Here are some images from that journey. Enjoy!

Trynkit was a hardware device designed to wirelessly load code (including arduino code) that had been written and compiled from our webapp onto the chip

i always loved the idea of teaching kids to code by using something physical so that any code changes could be seen moving in front of them.
