Snekboard is designed to hook up to Lego Power Functions motors and switches, allowing you to build robots out of Lego and control them with CircuitPython or the simpler snek programming language.

Snekboard is 48mm × 48mm, which is the same size as 6 x 6 Lego studs allowing you to build a box out of Lego to hold it attached to your Leo design. It uses a single cell lithium polymer battery that fits under the board and charges over USB while snekboard is being programmed from the host.
