MicroBlocks and App Inventor

It is working now. So how do we teach this in class. When the extension is not compatible

Could you explain what is not connecting?

Is working now, my concern now is the extension

You mean the connection between MicroBlocks <-> micro:bit is working?

It is working well

When will this be updated I think that is why our other App works for a while and then crashes

What is it that should be updated?

The code.appinventor builder

I don“t know, and I also don“t know if that is the cause of your problems. I only noticed that the code server is working for my app, but the regular server does not and makes the app crash.

Please what do you mean by code server and regular seever

Two different servers for building AI2 projects:

REGULAR

Okay

Since I've had a lot of trouble with app inventor and microbit connection I find microblocks interesting. But how do I get the microbits ble id, the three letters @Peter

Great that you like MicroBlocks. When you have installed the vm for the micro:bit on your micro:bit v2 and it powers up it will show a 3 letter code. In the input category of MicroBlocks there is also a block that can show you the BLE id.

Thanks @Peter ! Have started to test now, only on the microbit without app so far. I found out if I press the reset button the threee letters will appear. Micorblocks looks nice so far. Is it made to be used with app inventor or is it general purpose?

You can use MicroBlocks with a lot of microcontrollers. You don't need App Inventor but the MicroBlocks extension makes a lot of things possible in an easy way.
