Hi all,

FYI.

To promote JAL I posted a video about an RGB LED Strip Controller that I created.

https://youtu.be/idy4aSvPU1o

Next to that I also posted it on Instructables (to compete with the Arduino projects :-):

https://www.instructables.com/RGB-LED-Strip-Controller-1

Kind regards,

Rob

The tutorial is ok, but I would suggest something a little more spectacular... Search projects on Instructables after popularity, in the same category for ideas.

The problem with this is that there is no Arduino like PIC development board that could sell well, but there are still few choices (well, it was a few years back).

There are:

Amicus18 https://community.element14.com/products/devtools/technicallibrary/w/documents/10302/amicus-pic18f25k20-amicus18-based-eval-board-for-microchip-s-pic18f25k20

Firewing18 http://www.firewing.info/pmwiki.php?n=Firewing.Firewing08

And maybe this one: https://www.hackster.io/news/pick-your-pic-with-this-uno-compatible-development-board-d491cfe7bce7

One thing I know about the beginners that choose Arduino... They are scared of bare metal programming... so the board must provide a bootloader and easy uploading of the firmware....

That is how you get them into PIC programming... then slowly moving them to bare metal.

Hi Vasi,

Thanks for the info. There is also another solution ... The JALPIC One (like Arduino Uno 🙂) that I made several years ago, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3Vok7s2fXk

JALPIC One, an Arduino like solution for the PIC Microcontroller

The JALPIC One is an Arduino Uno like board but in this case for a PIC Microcontroller and based on the JAL programming language. For more information on JAL, visit: http://justanotherlanguage.org/

www.youtube.com

I also made some Python scripts to support the programming.

Kind regards,

Rob

Is a pretty board, use it for the Jalv2 tutorials.
