Simple Arduino Project/ Blink

If you're a beginner who'd like to start off your career with an easy, quick project, then you're at the right place! Today, we'll be building the Arduino blink light, with very few supplies and very easy codes that will teach you the essence of ARDUINO!

Supplies needed for the project include:

Arduino [I used a UNO, but any will do]

- An LED A resistor [There are many calculators to work out the exact ohm rated resistor you will need, but I generally just use a 330ohm one]

- Wires - Solderless breadboard

- 2 bulbs

The first step, unquestionably, is to gather the essential materials needed for the project.

The bulbs: the main thing that'll be happening would be the blinking bulbs, making it a necessary material without question. We'll be exploring further on how to insert them into sockets later on.

Wires: The wires connect the different structures while allowing the entire system to activate by providing a medium for electricity to flow.

LED A Resister: Resistors regulate the currents to flow between the bulbs and other sockets. Resistors play an important role as they can prevent dangerous mistakes such as catching fire!

Solderless breadboard: The breadboard is where everything will be happening, where the circuits will be plugged into and wires connected. It is the most important material for any project made from Arduino.

Connect the circuits according to the image below above. Simple!

Insert the code below onto your Arduino software.

Congrats! You have finished your project!

You may DIY some creative lids that can cover up the circuits and showing only the bulbs, like what I did using a simple cardboard lid. Have fun!
