Hello everyone,

We just released the first nodes for Microsoft Jacdac ([https://aka.ms/jacdac](https://aka.ms/jacdac)). Jacdac is a bus-based plug-and-play hardware and software stack for microcontrollers and their peripherals such as sensors and actuators.

> Microsoft Jacdac for node-red

In this (beta) release, there are two nodes that allow to listen for events and sensor readings. Since Jacdac is plug-n-play you can use a single node to capture a whole range of devices and pipe their data into your flows. You can do things like `send me all down events for any button on the Jacdac bus` or `stream any humidity sensor on the bus`.

Defintely looking for feedback on the design of the nodes, to make sure we match the typical expectations and usage patterns from the node-red platform.
