GlowDuino enters large-scale production
Despite the difficulties of the first batch, we are now starting large-scale production. With that, the number of available units will increase and we can start development on other GlowDuino boards.
We also hope that with the increasing unit numbers, we can start lowering our prices to the point where it is more affordable for everyone.

Full function IDE package released
With the new 2.0.3 Arduino IDE package for the GlowDuino Uno, now it is no longer necessary to install MiniCore for you to use all the functions of your board.
The new version also implements a few minor compiler issue fixes and as far as our testing concluded, every Arduino example is compatible with the GlowDuino Uno.
Update yours from the Boards Manager in your Arduino IDE software and use all the functions of your board seamlessly!
