Getting Started with Arduino, by Massimo Banzi, offers an accessible introduction. The platform's official website is a good source of tutorials, help, project ideas, and interaction with other users.

Arduino is a do-it-yourselfers dream that allows you to create a true smart home experience tailored to your needs. Check out how to use Arduino to build the smart home you want.

You use wires to connect the Arduino to the breadboard and create the circuits that make everything communicate. This is why you see movies where they need to cut a wire to stop a bomb from exploding.

Fortunately, Arduino boards are programmable from a Linux, Mac or Windows machine, using an integrated development environment (IDE), downloadable from here, or from the Arduino web editor.

If, however, they don't seem to be a great fit for your needs, there are several other small Arduino boards you can use instead, including the Micro (18 by 48 mm), MKR Zero (25 x 61.5 mm) and MKR ...

This articles describes how you can use I2C (TWI) communication, Arduino and temperature sensors to measure 3 different temperatures. It can be very helpful when you want to measure the outside, ...

Sometimes you don't need a large microcontroller to get your work done. In this installment, TK teaches us how to use the ATtiny combined with Arduino to use the PWM function found on this chip.
