07-12, 15:00–16:00 (US/Eastern), DevKitty Village
If you’re intrigued by hardware but don’t know where to start, this crash course is for you! You’ll learn to solder and assemble your own cat-shaped console - the DevKitty - and will walk away with a powerful prototyping and hacking companion that fits in your pocket! You’ll become familiarized with the basic skills and tools to start prototyping your own mini projects, including beginner-friendly coding through CircuitPython. You’ll also be briefly introduced to processes like circuit board design and 3D printing when you’re ready to take your projects to the next level! Be sure to bring your hardware questions to this flexible session. NOTE: As a prerequisite to this workshop, attendees need to build a DevKitty - there are several “Solder Your Own DevKitty” workshops given each day at the DevKitty Village where you can do this.
Alex Lynd is a hardware hacker and cybersecurity instructor who builds low-cost wireless hacking tools at his company LyndLabs. He creates educational hacking content on shows like Hak5, and also founded DevKitty, where he develops cat-themed hardware for makers and hackers!
