VIDI X Microcomputer
VIDI X microcomputer was developed by VIDI - a company devoted to the idea of making exceptional tools for STEAM education. VIDI X microcomputer is part of the education solution for engaging computer science.
VIDI X V1.1
Microcomputer designed for use in education, based on ESP32 Wrover IB, with modular circuit featuring removable touch screen and buttons.
Built-in expansion possibility with additional sensors or microcomputers via 28 pin expansion with male and female headers (I2C, I2S, SPI, UART, GPIO, IRQ - 3.3 V). All connectors are installed in male and female versions. There is also an I2C (VIDIIC) connector for easier connection to I2C sensors and actuators.

CircuitPython 9.2.0-alpha.2351
This is the latest development release of CircuitPython that will work with the VIDI X V1.1.
Alpha development releases are early releases. They are unfinished, are likely to have bugs, and the features they provide may change. Beta releases may have some bugs and unfinished features, but should be suitable for many uses. A Release Candidate (rc) release is considered done and will become the next stable release, assuming no further issues are found.
Please try alpha, beta, and rc releases if you are able. Your testing is invaluable: it helps us uncover and find issues quickly.

Absolute Newest
Every time we commit new code to CircuitPython we automatically build binaries for each board and language. The binaries are stored on Amazon S3, organized by board, and then by language. These releases are even newer than the development release listed above. Try them if you want the absolute latest and are feeling daring or want to see if a problem has been fixed.
Previous Versions of CircuitPython
All previous releases of CircuitPython are available for download from Amazon S3 through the button below. For very old releases, look in the OLD/ folder for each board. Release notes for each release are available at GitHub button below.
Older releases are useful for testing if you something appears to be broken in a newer release but used to work, or if you have older code that depends on features only available in an older release. Otherwise we recommend using the latest stable release.
