Sidekick is a collection of popular components for DIY projects. It is easy to create custom breadboard circuits that can interface with a development kit. This is an excellent starter kit for new electronics engineers and makers.
This kit is fully compatible with all TI LaunchPads. The following examples are based on LaunchPads that support Energia software. If you are using any of the LaunchPad kits, the examples should be the same or involve minor pin configuration changes.
As for more support materials, please to access www.energia.nu/sidekick.
