New Project! Mini Mac SE with HalloWing #3DPrinting #CircuitPython
Build a mini mac with HalloWing that displays boot screen actually plays startup chimes! It uses the Adafruit HalloWing M0 Express and runs Circuit Python. The capacitive touch pads cycling through images and sounds stored on device. Circuit Python makes it easy to display images on TFT displays. The HalloWing PCB snap fits onto the face plate without any screws. A mini speaker plugs into the audio port on the back. Press fit the speaker into the back door and close it shut with the built-in latch. You can power the HalloWing over USB or recharge a lipo battery to make it portable.
