00:00.080 --> 00:01.310
In the following lessons.

00:01.310 --> 00:07.070
Over the next three sections, you are going to learn how to use and program the gpios of your Raspberry

00:07.070 --> 00:07.700
Pi board.

00:07.730 --> 00:13.010
The Gpio pins are a great way to make your Raspberry Pi control simple hardware components.

00:13.010 --> 00:16.280
I will show you how to get started with them step by step.

00:16.280 --> 00:22.160
We will start with very simple setups like an LED or a push button, and then we will go to more advanced

00:22.160 --> 00:28.580
and fun hardware components to create a complete project to configure and control Gpios, we are going

00:28.580 --> 00:32.540
to use a Python module which will make things very easy for you.

00:32.570 --> 00:36.650
Make sure that you are comfortable with Python basics before you continue.

00:36.680 --> 00:42.260
If needed, you can watch the previous section on Python again and also do the activities again.

00:42.260 --> 00:46.910
Now, before we get started with all that, we need to create our first circuit.

00:46.910 --> 00:48.320
So let's do that right now.

00:48.320 --> 00:51.710
And this will be the focus of this quite small section.

00:51.740 --> 00:55.400
A few things to understand first and then we will build the circuit.
