Comments closedDecember 3rd kicks off Computer Science Education Week 2018! Computer Science Education Week is held in early December every year in recognition of the birthday of computing pioneer Admiral Grace Hopper. Alongside this is the Hour of Code promotion where schools throughout the world get students to try at least 1 hour of programming at some point during the week.
Each year for Hour of Code, I volunteer at the local Middle School to talk to the students about what it is like to be a programmer and do a little bit of programming. This year I plan to demonstrate Xojo Dojo with a Raspberry Pi and show the kids how much fun coding and Xojo programming can be.

Comments closedOn Monday February 29th, the Raspberry Pi Foundation announced the new Raspberry Pi 3. This updated Pi has some significant improvements over the Pi 2, including:
- A 1.2GHz 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU (~10x the performance of Raspberry Pi 1)
- Integrated 802.11n wireless LAN and Bluetooth 4.1
- Complete compatibility with Raspberry Pi 1 and 2
That last bullet point is notable because it means that Xojo is also fully compatible with the new Raspberry Pi 3!
Comments closedBjorn at Einhugur has created a bunch of tutorials for projects you can create using Xojo and a Raspberry Pi.
Comments closedIn order to interface with the Raspberry Pi, you often want to use the General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) port. It is easy enough to connect a broadboard to the port, but how do you write Xojo code that can talk to the port?
