Mu attempts to automatically detect a Circuit Playground Express plugged into a computer. Before starting Mu, please plug in your CircuitPlayground Express and make sure it shows up as a CIRCUITPY drive in your computer’s file explorer.
Once Mu is started, you will be prompted to select your mode. Please select “Adafruit CircuitPython”. The bottom bar show say that it detected a board.
