micro:bit software (Create and Learn, n.d.).
Micro:bit is an open source hardware micro-controller that uses ARM-based embedded system. As it was intended to encourage children and teenagers to be involved in programming, micro:bit is widely recognised to be user-friendly. It makes use of various code editors like Microsoft MakeCode and Scratch that are readily accessible. It also allows for text-based programming like Python that enables greater flexibility in application and project development.
Micro:bit has been applied widely in scientific, humanities, arts and sports projects. With a wide user base, many micro:bit projects are available online for reference and exploration.
