Happy New Year! In his editorial ("Develop together - especially now!") featured in Elektor January/February 2021, Jens Nickel points out that design innovation, project planning, and learning never stop, even when we are faced with challenges like a global pandemic. In the first edition of 2021 (yes, we've been publishing for six decades!), we show what can be achieved during even the most difficult of times.

Over the course of just a few months, creative electrical engineers, hardware designers, programmers, makers, and educators from the world came together (remotely, of course) to develop several new electronics projects and to write tutorials, reviews, and essays on a wide range of topics. We salute all of the people who contributed to this special issue, and we thank our many dedicated readers around the globe. We invite you to read the new edition and share your thoughts and projects with us in the coming days and weeks.
