Summary

In this chapter, we have introduced the Arduino ecosystem with its two main components, the Arduino IDE and Arduino boards. We have taken an in-depth look at the versatile Arduino Uno and you have transferred your first program onto your own Arduino Uno, using the entire Arduino toolchain. We will build on all of this in the next chapter, where we will learn how to use the Uno’s interfaces to communicate with sensors, make motors spin, and control entire robots.
