*Description:*
What are all the components on that aesthetically pleasing blue Arduino circuit board? What does GND stand for, and what is with the "~" mark next to those plastic lifted holes mean?

This tutorial covers the hardware on the Arduino board that you will likely use as you work on projects. It is by no means a comprehensive study of the physical layout, but enough to make you familiar with the parts you will be using.

On an aside - isn't the packaging great too? Clean, compact and appealing - overall fun to open.

Finally I found a video that starts from scratch. U r the best.

Finally, I understood what my professor was saying all these classes. These videos are very useful.
Thanks a lot.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! 
I am a teacher, and I just jumped in, purchased 2 arduino kits and some little bits circuitry, believing that his is a great resource for students to use when inventing electronic things. Well, until your video, I could not understand the manual or the other video tutorials. You give me hope that I can help the kids understand this enough to innovate with it!

[bravekhan]

you are my real teacher, whenever im gonna use arduino im gonna be thankful to u.
love u and thank u bro

[murpheyslaw]

I too will say FINALLY- an instructional video without the crappy music hip sounding foul mouthed jargon, just straight up plain to the point information-THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!!!

[RikerRC]

First of all thank you for a great series of tutorials. You are using a very accessible language, i enjoy listening to you. Your videos have encouraged me to try the Arduino and I'm very happy. It's been about two months since purchasing the board. So far I have not had contact with programming language. I have managed to create own device based on Arduino for high speed photography.
Please continue your teaching - it is really invaluable for people like me. Many thanks again for your time.

I absolutely love these videos and I appreciate you taking the time to produce them.  This is exactly the kind of material I need as I am just starting to work with the Arduino.  Your videos are very easy to understand and the audio is excellent unlike many of the Youtube productions. 

[CarlosRomeroTapia]

This is the 4th tutorial I've seen and is the first that really explains it all for really guys. Totally agree with other comments: Best totorial.
I'm in for the complete tutorial... (but I'm still waiting my Arduino board)

[tonyb]

Huge, huge thanks for posting, just what I needed, a very slow start, I am very new to electronics so this is perfect. Your production quality (Sound and Video) is excellent

[mondal]

Helpful to me after 6 years. Great video.

[VaibhavGautamIndia]

no one in this world has explained the arduino board like this. thanks :)

[micojones]

I bought the Arduino just this week and have just found your channel. I am so glad because you did a very great job with those videos! Keep up the great work and thank you big times!!!

[missingpatel]

I can't believe this video is absolutely free!! ♥️

[nicholsliwilson]

Wow, you really are starting with the absolute basics here? That's not in any way a criticism, I know this is a couple of years old but I wish I'd had this kind of tuition when I started with prototyping.
Good job my friend! :)

[jonathanrager]

Just found out about the Arduino! This is great, thank you for posting this. Now I am able to understand this otherwise mysterious piece of hardware. Thanks again, super helpful!!! :)

[jordanriver]

thank you for the video I’m starting to get interest in imbedded programming and I thought starting with Arduino Will give me a general idea of what I’m getting into. I’m also studying c programming side-by-side. God bless YouTube

[soulkiss]

Great tutorial! I'm a novice and it gave me a better understanding as to why I couldn't get my fading LED project to work properly. After watching this, problem solved!

[prA]

Awesome my friend, really i have no words to say in your appreciation.

[mutluhanc]

It is even simplier than arduino for dummies. Thanks this tutorials are awesome

[vege]

Very insightfull especially for beginners.I just found it predicting my 101 concerns thast I didn t find in other tutorials and ressources. I look forwards additional tutorials and maybe a handbook.Thanks a lot
