What is the difference between the Circuit Playground Expres
No matter what I do I cannot get the Circuit Playground Express to work with Code.org...I've downloaded drivers, maker toolkit, Arduino CreateAgent, Arduino 1.8, Firmata, etc.and still can't get this to work...what am I doing wrong...they promised us this would be easy..I have spent the last 4 hours working on this and nothing works...

Re: What is the difference between the Circuit Playground Ex
Have you looked at this and this? How are you configuring the IDE and what board are you selecting?

Circuit Playground Express (CPX) doesn't work right now with code.org Firmata-based programming environment. Circuit Playground Classic does. We're working on getting CPX to work with code.org but it's not ready yet.
CPX does work with https://makecode.adafruit.com, another way to easily get started with programming. (Note MakeCode vs Code.)

Re: What is the difference between the Circuit Playground Ex
Do you know if Circuit Playground Express can now work with code.org (firmata)? In one description it says that it does work and in another description it says it Does Not work. I have attached the screen shots from the website that I viewed on my mobile phone.
I would like to order the express board since I will eventually be teaching python but want to start the kids with Code.org CS Discoveries.
