Can you Emulate LEDs and Wires with Alligator clips using MakeCode (without actual micro:bit hardware)? (Screenshots included)

Hi, I am working on a school project and need to do some micro:bit/Maker Code projects from home. I will not have access to the actual hardware that is in my classroom.

So I am confused, when I follow the Step by Step guide, it says to use two wires with alligator clips to light up an LED. I don’t have the board or anything at home. Can I emulate this fully with MakeCode?

Here is the first step:

Here is what that .hex file loads in MakeCode:

And this is the next step:

MC 2.2 2
MC 2.2 21685×1345 140 KB

For some of the other projects, I figured out how to set it all up in the Make Code emulator without any hardware. But for this project, it seems like they want me to actually connect wires. How do I ‘emulate’ this step? (Step 7)

Thank you very much for your help.

I am also eager to find out about emulation with MakeCode. Meanwhile, can I be your navigator?
