Peter is a registered nurse from Tilburg, The Netherlands. As an open-source advocate, he is involved in multiple open-source projects. In his spare time, he enjoys creating learning materials and being a CoderDojo/Code Club Leader. With his son he organizes FOSDEM Junior. At MicroBlocks, Peter is committed to building an engaging community and spreading the word about MicroBlocks.
This hands-on workshop will introduce participants to physical computing using Snap! and MicroBlocks. By combining the powerful live-coding environment of MicroBlocks with Snap!, attendees will explore how to control real-world hardware using the MicroBlocks library for Snap!.
Participants will build simple but engaging projects using microcontrollers like the micro:bit, Calliope mini, CoCube, ESP32, Raspberry Pi Pico and others. No prior electronics experience is required—just curiosity and a desire to explore computing beyond the screen!
