In this first epsiode of this Arduino Basics video series I will talk about the main functions of the ATmega328P Arduino boards and the fundamental code commands that you will need to create very basic Arduino sketches.

Admit it. You already knew all about Arduino, still watched till end because it's GreatScott!

Phenomenal video!!! its funny how once you start playing with arduino how quickly you start understanding components and functionality and how to "over time" downscale cost yet still have the same functionality, I am personally SUPER thrilled that development has become so mainstream and readily available on multiple levels. hardware, software, modules, and educational videos are becoming more and more cost effective and available as time progresses. Thanks GreatScot! for taking the time to upload a valuable video to the community.

Dude you explained in 8 minutes more than what my teacher tried to explain our class in a year...
Keep up the good work!

Your videos are so crisp, well edited and loaded with information. You are very talented, not limited to electronics. keep the videos coming.

Been programing/making with Arduino for almost two years and still managed to learn something from this video. Great as always.

Been using Arduinos for about 5 years in various projects now, and I still learned some new stuff from this video.

Please keep this series going! It's a great idea and we'll be looking forward to seeing new videos as always. You channels are very inspiring. Thank you.

Good morning Scott! Great video, especially comparing the 3 Arduino boards. You were able to make your points very clear with the simple demonstrations. Please continue with v102.

My first ever Arduino tutorial, and I can just tell this guy is a freak at this.

[TopCat]

Please do more like this, I find the Arduino platform to be quite interesting but haven't had the time to fully get into the projects involved with them, but the concept is very interesting. Your videos are very well done, keep up the good work

I did know all of that, but you have to watch just because it's Great Scott! Even so, please continue the series but not in a row! Also, you can skip the teardowns, too many other people on YouTube doing that and you are waaay too smart for that!!!

[srsenales]

I am so happy, that I fall into category of people who support this channel since beggining (one of the first 200 subs). Great job GreatScott! Keep it up :-)

[qps]

PLEASE keep doing these tutorials!!! I really want to completely learn how to use an Arduino properly. Also, it would be great if you could do videos more than once a week... Thanks :)

[jessem]

Nice video, I like that you don't drone on about useless information and get right to the point.

[josech]

And here I'm, just waiting Great Scott to upload his video, as every sunday morning (C.R)
Great video as always!

[evierma]

Very concise, precise information, very good production. Sound is great, no annoying, repetitive background music. In total great video. Thanks!

[raennis]

i hope you continue in this series as i'm going to do my graduation project next year based on the arduino ... wish you best luck ... continue your work .. i love it

[hiftomt]

Great video, as always. Your videos got me into electronics a few months ago. Keep up the good work!

[piyayozeo]

Thanks scott! yesterday by midnight I was looking for a tutorial to explain pwm and then today as soon as I woke up I had the notification of this video hahahaha

[yousweetpotato]

Really concise and clear tour of all the important functions with the technical terms and accompanying visual demos. Thank you thank you!!!
