Ready to learn to program with BlocklyProp? You are in the right place.
What it’s about
This set of activities will help you get familiar with the basic BlocklyProp blocks, how to use them, and how they work together. You will build programs for common coding tasks: naming and using values, doing math problems, making decisions, and repeating sections of code.
Hardware needed
This set of lessons requires only your Propeller development board, its source of power, and its USB programming cable. It is written for the Propeller Activity Board WX that comes with the ActivityBot Robot Kit, Arlo Complete Robot System, and BlocklyProp Starter Kit. It is also compatible with the Propeller FLiP module. Other Propeller-based boards that have the same connections to a 5 MHz oscillator and the same type of EEPROM, such as the Hackable Electronic Badges, will also work with most blocks.
Before you start
- Make sure you’ve gone through Getting Started with BlocklyProp Solo.
After you finish
- Try the BlocklyProp Functions tutorial to build re-usable chunks of code.
- Explore the Propeller BlocklyProp Block Reference to discover more blocks, including special ones for various sensors, displays, and other devices you can connect to your board.
