Description
In the adafruit circuit playground and in the maker tool the serial blocks are hidden. You can access the functions in java and you can see the serial blocks listed properly in the support documents for these two apps. I've tried the windows 10 adafruit app and it has the same missing serial blocks issue running the app locally as it does running it on in a browser on the web. Also may I ask how to use the webusb. I saw mention of it and it sounds exciting. It will be way easier for students to upload using a direct usb connection. Keep up all the exciting work. The serial blocks are still available in microbit.

Research direction
Reproduce the missing serial blocks in the Adafruit Circuit Playground and Maker tools, both in the Windows 10 app and in the browser. Compare their block lists with the support documents and the working micro:bit blocks; done means the serial blocks are visible and available in both affected tools.
