Love to Code Creative Coding Kit
KIT-14590
DESCRIPTION INCLUDES DOCUMENTS EXAMPLES
Get started with coding and paper circuits now! The Love to Code Creative
Coding Kit from Chibitronics is a fun, friendly and new way to engage with
coding using the Chibi Chip microcontroller board. The Creative Coding Kit
reinvents the book through paper electronics: craft functional circuits directly
into the pages of the included storybook, Love to Code Volume 1, while learning
how to bring images to life through code. With Love to Code, everyone can fall
in love with coding!
In Love to Code Volume 1, you’ll join Fern the Frog in learning the “sometimes
hard, but fun” concepts in coding. You’ll master basics of electronics and coding
with the help Fern’s friend, Sami the Seal. You’ll start with turning on an LED,
then learning how to make it blink. Your projects will become interactive after
learning how to craft several types of paper circuit switches, while learning about
variables and conditional statements. You’ll wrap up with learning how to create
more aesthetically pleasing light-fading effects using loops and multithreading.
There is also a comprehensive appendix on debugging which will help you
develop the skills to evaluate, find, and fix problems in projects.
Getting started is easy and quick, thanks to an easy-to-use web-only
environment that requires no software to install or drivers to configure. Code is
uploaded to your Chibi Chip via the common headphone jack. If you can stream
music off the web, you’ve already got everything you need to Love to Code.

The Love to Code Creative Coding Kit contains everything needed to complete
Love to Code Volume 1. This includes the 150-page book printed in full color, a
Chibi Chip pre-mounted in a Chibi Clip, a programming cable, 2 rolls of copper
tape, 36 white LED stickers, 64 conductive fabric patches, a stencil for sketching
component outlines, and a Chibi Book powered ring binder (batteries not
included – requires 3 AA batteries).
Note: The Love to Code Creative Coding Kit requires three AA sized batteries
to operate. These batteries are NOT included in this kit and will need to be
purchased separately.

In 2003, CU student Nate Seidle fried a power supply in his dorm room
and, in lieu of a way to order easy replacements, decided to start his
own company. Since then, SparkFun has been committed to sustainably
helping our world achieve electronics literacy from our headquarters in
Boulder, Colorado.
No matter your vision, SparkFun's products and resources are designed
to make the world of electronics more accessible. In addition to over
2,000 open source components and widgets, SparkFun offers
curriculum, training and online tutorials designed to help demystify the
wonderful world of embedded electronics. We're here to help you start
something.
