Raspberry Pi Foundation released next generation of Compute Module with label 3+ (CM3+).
Compute Module 3+ is available in a few variants which differ by amount of eMMC memory.

STM32duino, Arduino package which is developed by STMicroelectronics, added supporting of STM8.
Really cheap 8-bit microcontrollers. In this time supports STM8L152R8 (Nucleo STM8L152R8) and STM8S208RB (Nucleo STM8S208RB).

If you want to use Nucleo board which are mentioned above and you are using Windows 10 ...

Update: Android 7.0 is available on donwload centre of chinese version of website.

Xunlong offers a lot of single-board computers called OrangePi. They also offeres a few SBCs with Allwinner H6 and now they released a new version called OrangePi 3. ...

You can buy a few types of oscilloscopes for a few USD. Or also you can made that e.g. Miniscope v2.
One of them is mentioned in this news - HS101. The base component is STM32F103 microcontroller.

Olimex added 7 new modules with ESP32 which supports WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity.

ESP32-WROOM-32D-4MB – this is equal to used by us ESP32-WROOM-32, it uses D0WD instead of D0WDQ6 which is with smaller size and Espressif recommend it for new designs.
ESP32-WROOM-32D-16MB has 16MB of Flash
ESP32-WROOM-32D-4MBHT is High temperature +105C module for demanding applications.
ESP32-WROOM-32U-4MB is with U.FL connector for external antenna
ESP32-WROOM-32U-16MB has 16MB of Flash
ESP32-WROOM-32U-4MBHT is High temperature +105C module for demanding applications.
ESP32-WROVER-4MB has 4MB Flash and 8MB of PSRAM.

The price range is from 5.50 EUR up to 7.70 EUR

Every maker has to have solder station, logic analyzer and also power supply.
You can have usual power supply or this controllable power supply which is really good for experiments - SIRU.BOX.

The power supply with output power voltage up to 15V and output current is up to 600mA (max 2.5W) can be helpful for experiments and also for lasting powering of devices where the input current of device is fluctuating.

Just imagine. You have an idea for your project. You have a device which will send your data to website. Or you will control your device from website.
And there is problem. How to display your data on website? And where? How to control the device from website?
This application RemoteMe.org will help you.

Christmas should be a holiday of peace and well-being.
There are relaxing videos for makers which I chose.

You ordered a few DS18B20 temperature sensors and after a few weeks of waiting, you finally received the shipment. You connected the sensor to your project and ... nothing... Tried again ... nothing.
Where is the bug? Your connection? Bad contact? Your code?

For solving of issue, Petr Stehlík (CZ) developed a smart code which tests your temperature sensor.
He received a lot of sensors which were not working properly hence he spent a time for developing of this "tool".

Schematic and code is available on github https://github.com/joysfera/DS18B20-tester/

Update: The board is on stock from 15 EUR.
