Link to the pin out of the bottom connector:

Looks like a neat board, I could see making expansion modules that plug into the bottom and running like a IR blaster or other stuff off the SPI/UART bus.

They really bury the lede here, awesome that there is already an ecosystem that exists for the edge connector.

It's the same connector as on the BBC Micro:bit, right?
I was thinking the same, and it is!

Edge Connectors Pin numbers are compatible with micro:bit, 19 independent I/O (Support 1 ×I2C, 1×UART, 2×SPI, 6×12-bit ADC, 5×10-bit PWM)

Note: The edge connector on the back has no electrical connection.

Hey, that's really cool!
Aside from pins, does this mean you can program with this MakeCode ?
