Arduino Course for Beginners – Open-Source Electronics Platform

arduino-course-for-beginners-open-source-electronics-platform

Learn how to use Arduino hardware and software in this full course for beginners. Arduino is an easy-to-use, open-source electronics platform. Arduino boards are able to read inputs – light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message – and turn it into an output – activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board.

No hardware is required for to follow along with this course!
