Now Elecfreaks has grown into a big tree from a small sprout. Our growth can not leave without open source industry, can not leave without your long-term support. Now, it’s the time for us to do some contribution. We are so glad to find that micro:bit foundation has the same sense of mission with us. Micro:bit is more than just a simple electric circuit. It is created with a final goal of motivating students to participate into the creative hardware production and software programming. In this era where STEM education is quite popular in the world, BBC Micro:bit Foundation is just like a beacon in the sea, who has promoted micro:bit to the eyesight of the global STEM educators within 2 years by using its powerful appeal. Fast speed and wide range of promotion, no one has ever done it in the open hardware field before. I believe the influence of micro:bit foundation, combining with the development ability of Elecfreaks, will have a win-win situation that lead to a new miracle.
