We'll outline the basics of the Arduino itself, what the crazy jumble of wires means, and then step through how to use other people's code and schematics to build your first electronics project ...

[Martin] sent in a great guide to a simple Arduino based theremin ... on a simple LC oscillator built around a 7400 quad NAND gate IC, a wire antenna, and a few caps and resistors.

circuito.io is back with another simple to make but still very interesting maker project: an air gate made out of an Arduino ... including code and STL files, over on hackster.io.

The official Arduino IDE is a dour piece of software designed for uploading code to the ubiquitous and super-cool micro controller. It is a standalone, non-networked app that isn’t very pretty ...

If you prefer to think in hardware terms, the most elementary PRNG is a shift register with a feedback loop from two of its cells through an XOR gate ... it to that Arduino pin.
