 Thanks for your continuing support of the micro:bit. There is a wonderful  breadth of [third party editors](https://microbit.org/code/#other-editors) available for the micro:bit that support different coding languages and learning scenarios. This article provides information to help you continue to support the 5 million existing micro:bits in the world and the latest board revision with the exciting new features of a speaker and microphone.

 To support all revisions of the micro:bit, you will need to ensure you use the latest release of the MicroPython binary with your editor. The simplest way to do this is to flash a program created in the latest Python Editor which will contain the latest MicroPython build.

 ## Identifying which micro:bits you can support
 
-If you write an editor that doesn’t have an online update mechanism, or is only periodically updated, we recommend that you use the board ID mechanism to list boards that your editor supports and notify users of any incompatibility issues. You can read the board ID as the first four characters of the device’s USB serial number.

 The latest board revision introduces a superset of the Intel-Hex format that enables compatibility across processor variants. A Universal Hex is a file that contains the binary data for both micro:bit <span class="v1">v1</span> and micro:bit <span class="v2">V2</span>, in a format that the DAPLink can process to only write to memory the data relevant to its micro:bit board.

 ### Hex format compatibility
+
 The Universal Hex format has been developed to ensure the best experience for users when moving between board variants. There may be cases where it is not possible to support both boards, for example an accessory that is designed only to target the V2 board variant. In these cases, to ensure the best user experience when flashing a hex file to any board variant, the file should always include an error message to signify board incompatibility to the user. If we do not do this, it results in a silent failure, which can be very confusing to users.
