Getting Started
Adafruit Playground is a wonderful and safe place to share your interests with Adafruit's vibrant community of makers and doers. Have a cool project you are working on? Have a bit of code that you think others will find useful? Want to show off your electronics workbench? You have come to the right place.
The goal of Adafruit Playground is to make it as simple as possible to share your work. On the Adafruit Playground users can create Notes. A note is a single-page space where you can document your topic using Adafruit's easy-to-use editor. Notes are like Guides on the Adafruit Learning System but guides are high-fidelity content curated and maintained by Adafuit. Notes are whatever you want them to be. Have fun and be kind.

Monitor Indoor Air Quality with Blues, IFTTT, Adafruit IO and a Hue LED Strip
If you're working an office job, you're...in an office. Whether that's in your home or not, I'm going to hazard a guess that it's also indoors - and being indoors for an extended period of time without well-ventilated spaces can legitimately lead to low air quality (and in theory health issues).
Now, I'm not hear to spread fear and make you all think you're dying a slow death by breathing in your co-worker's exhalations. However, I am here to show off an easy way to build a cloud-connected indoor air quality system with:
- A variety of Adafruit air quality sensors.
- A Blues Notecard to cloud-connect the project with LTE connectivity.
- Adafruit IO to visualize air quality data and integrate with other services.
- A Philips Hue LED strip to provide real-time visuals for low air quality alerts.
