5.0 out of 5 stars A useful starting place.

If you have never programmed, this book will guide you through getting started. If you have previous experience, the links in the book can save hours of searching.
The reason I bought this book was I started with YouTube videos, which are time-consuming and only cover one topic. This book gives you a 360 overview in a short amount of time.
You still have to learn Python and / or C++ to understand why your own code fails.

It’s a great book for learning the basics of CircuitPython on the Playground Express, however much of the information covered is readily available for free in the Learn section of Adafruit’s superb website.
