We've blended smart widgets, and even smarter software to make Flotilla friendly for everyone, from complete beginners to savvy makers. 

Flotilla helps you make reactive and interactive projects - a robotvirtual petweather station - anything you can think of!

It's designed to progress with you as your skills develop. You don't need any coding skills or electronics knowledge to get started, you can simply plug and play.

For beginners Flotilla has Cookbook and Rockpool, two web-based apps which you can access from your computer or tablet. They let you experiment, learn, and build without writing a single line of code.

For anyone who's done a little programming before, we also have a complete Python API that lets you talk to all of the Flotilla modules.
