MakeCode interface
We are going to use the online version of MakeCode, available in https://makecode.microbit.org/#editor
General description
- Simulator: Located in the upper-left corner of the screen, the simulator displays a virtual micro:Bit where you can see your program running. This section is useful for testing and debugging your code before downloading it to the board.
- Toolbox: Located in a vertical panel next to the simulator, the Toolbox contains the programming blocks organized into categories. Clicking a category name opens a panel on the right displaying the most commonly used blocks in that category. Note that, just below the category name, you will often find a More... option. Clicking it reveals the remaining blocks in that category. To use a block, simply drag it into the programming workspace.
- Programming workspace: Located to the right of the Toolbox, this is the area where you drag and arrange blocks to create your program.
- Toolbar: located at the top and at the bottom of the page, with different options.
