Your support helps me offset the costs of developing and maintaining MakeCode extensions for the micro:bit. My current extensions include:

Emulating Bluetooth HID mouse/keyboard,
Providing a software real-time clock,
Detecting single vs. double button clicks,
Measuring temperature (and with just 2 connections) accurately,
Support for the SEN55 air quality sensor (see sensor details here),
Display rotation,
Morse code encoding and decoding,
Bluetooth Support to retrieve the v2's data log: BLE Log,
Key/Value storage in flash memory, and
Rerouting i2c.

Further details about the extensions, how they fit my interests/work, etc. are detailed on my site.
Supporting work includes a library for easy WebUSB interactions with the microbit: https://github.com/bsiever/microbit-webusb and web-based retrieval of the microbit:v2's data log (for the blelog extension): https://github.com/bsiever/microbit-webblelog.
In addition to this work, I teach computer science and computer engineering at Washington University in St. Louis (Sponsorship is purely for my non-WashU work. Please don't sponsor me if you are a current or future student!) I have also assisted with tech-themed summer camps at The Magic House and lead workshops to help educators adopt technology.
Thanks!
