Microcontrollers - Arduino, Microbit, ESP32

[Desert Dan]

Does anyone tinker with any microcontrollers like ESP32, Microbit, Arduino, etc?   If so, what have you done with it?   So much easier to code for than just 5 years ago.

 

I have quite a collection of sensors, AI cameras, communication stuff, LCD/OLED displays, expansion boards and a lot more, but I am still an amateur, but liking what I see out there.  It's an amazing world and unbelievably easy these days to make things happen these days.  I have servos, step motors and such, but have not experimented with anything robotic yet.   I know some of the schools teach their students on the easiest one (Microbit) with Block coding, but you can do JavaScript, MicroPython, etc on some of the IDE's.  I have even used AI to come up with some quick code to save time.

I haven't gotten into them yet, but I have thought about trying to use something to add a stepper motor to adjust the tilt on my table saw.
