In the following lessons.
Over the next three sections, you are going to learn how to use and program the gpios of your Raspberry
Pi board.
The Gpio pins are a great way to make your Raspberry Pi control simple hardware components.
I will show you how to get started with them step by step.
We will start with very simple setups like an LED or a push button, and then we will go to more advanced
and fun hardware components to create a complete project to configure and control Gpios, we are going
to use a Python module which will make things very easy for you.
Make sure that you are comfortable with Python basics before you continue.
If needed, you can watch the previous section on Python again and also do the activities again.
Now, before we get started with all that, we need to create our first circuit.
So let's do that right now.
And this will be the focus of this quite small section.
A few things to understand first and then we will build the circuit.
