“First time using an Arduino board, lots of connections digital and analog which are clearly marked, so plenty of scope for a range of projects and a wide voltage range to power it is handy, plus lots of shields and accessories, compaired to a Raspberry Pi, the Arduino is more like a Pico, no sd card, you write a code called a sketch using the Arduino IDE, either online or you can download the program, then upload to the Arduino board, so a bit of a learning curve, but there are a lots of guides online, so you should be able to find help with most projects.”
