REKA:BIT is related to the EDU:BIT
With the fundamental concepts acquired from EDU:BIT’s 10+1 hands-on lessons, one is able to bring it further to apply the knowledge in creating more fun applications and even solving real-life problems with this micro:bit expansion board. Its much smaller board size is perfect for building innovation projects for schools and competitions, or even just to tame your cravings for DIY and making.
Note: This product does NOT include a micro:bit board.
Coding your REKA
Program your REKA:BIT with Microsoft MakeCode Editor. Just add REKA:BIT MakeCode Extension and you’re good to go. If you’re a beginner, you can start with the block programming mode; simply drag, drop, and snap the coding blocks together. For more advanced users, you can easily switch to JavaScript or Python mode on MakeCode Editor for text-based programming.
Do more with REKA
