| + | ===== A Word of Caution ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The Arduino does tend to abstract many things - it's important to understand that the inner workings of the Arduino are not that magical. There is a deep pool of EE-related knowledge underneath that abstraction that you can understand if you take the time to carefully consider what is happening. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Refer back to the embedded systems concepts you covered earlier when you get confused conceptually. | ||

| + | ===== Learning Arduino ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | This guide will get you through learning the Arduino platform, regardless if you've had previous exposure to microcontrollers or not. | ||
| + | |||
| + | From here, visit the [[ https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/HomePage| Arduino homepage ]] to start working with Arduino. From there, follow the corrosponding links and guides on how to install and use the Arduino IDE. Once you've installed the Arduino IDE and set up your Arduino board, please go through the following examples to ensure everything is set up correctly: | ||
| + | - Bare Minimum | ||
| + | - Blink | ||
| + | - Blink Without Delay | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Things might still be confusing at this point - [[ https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Foundations | this page ]] might help clear up some things. It might be your benefit to skim through some of those materials. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Also, if in doubt - as for clarification or help! Other teams may be available, your mentors are there to help you and the leadership team is always there. | ||
