Here is a section to get started with the microbit: http://iot.appinventor.mit.edu/#/teachers/howtos
And here is more info: http://iot.appinventor.mit.edu/#/microbit/microbitintro
Cheers, Ghica.

Alan replied to me privately: (please don't)
I've been all over those sites. I really need the url to upload the extension for the microbit. I don't see it anywhere on the site.
thanks though, alan

If you look here, you will see that the first two tutorials also apply to the micro:bit. You just need the basic BLE extension for it. I tried it a while ago and it works fine.

Then, there are some extensions to the extension, that I cannot find either.
So I tried to load the finished examples, for temperature and led, they both refuse to load.
Evan, could you clarify?

Cheers, Ghica.

Assuming you are attempting to directly import the extensions via the URL tab of the Import Extension wizard:


If you want to just try it out instead of building an app from scratch, we have pointers to sample projects for the LED matrix and temperature sensors:


We'll work on making the direct extension links more visible on the site.
