Highly modular components aimed at tinkerers (connect electronically with grove connectors rather than soldering (unless you want to), Lego-compatible, programmable in C, micropython, or via blockly. It's very, very easy to get up and running. Also they're still doing 10-20% off today.
Cons: documentation is a bit mediocre, you're kinda expected to read datasheets/figure it out yourself past the basics. If you are OK with looking up chip/component numbers to see exactly what they do you'll be fine.
Thanks! That's something I always hoped to see gain traction (I've seen several failed attempts in the past, and was tangentially involved in testing one aimed at kids). I'm fine with chasing data sheets and uC programming. I'll look into this for several projects I've been meaning to do.
