Arduino Tutorial Examples

This repository contains Arduino code examples I built while following the Arduino Tutorial course by Paul McWhorter on YouTube.

Each sketch corresponds to concepts taught throughout the lessons and is kept in its own folder so it can be opened and uploaded independently.

Course

• Instructor: Paul McWhorter
• Playlist: Arduino Tutorial (YouTube)

Hardware

• Board: Arduino Uno (arduino:avr:uno)

The board and upload port are defined per sketch in a sketch.yaml file used by the Arduino CLI. Adjust the port value (e.g. COM6) to match your own setup.

Examples

Folder	Sketch	Description
Example01	Example01.ino	Reads an analog input and turns an LED on/off based on the measured voltage range.
DimmableLed	DimmableLed.ino	Reads an analog input and controls LED brightness with analogWrite (PWM).
Photoresistor	Photoresistor.ino	Uses a photoresistor (LDR) to switch between a green and a red LED based on ambient light.
PushButtons	PushButtons.ino	Reads a push button and toggles an LED on each press.
Buzzer	Buzzer.ino	Drives a buzzer, with tone/timing derived from an analog reading.
Servo101	Servo101.ino	Controls a servo motor position using the Servo library.

Getting Started

1. Install the Arduino IDE or the Arduino CLI.
2. Open the desired example folder.
3. Connect your Arduino Uno and select the correct board and port.
4. Compile and upload the sketch.

Using the Arduino CLI

cd Example01
arduino-cli compile
arduino-cli upload
