Build smart things. Start here.

Free courses in electronics, the Internet of Things and coding, made for people who have never done any of it before. Learn at your own speed, with real parts, 3D labs you can turn in your hand, and projects that solve problems in your own community.

Free to use. Nothing to sign up for. Every course works offline, even from a USB stick.

Courses

Choose a course

Each course stands on its own, and each one builds on the one before it. If you are new, start with the Arduino Ladder: it assumes you know nothing.

Open now

The Arduino Ladder

Your first board. Lights, buttons, sensors, sound, motors and screens, one step at a time, ending with a device somebody in your community actually asked for.

  • 9 bands
  • 41 sketches
  • 46 3D labs
  • about 65 hours

Planned

Wi-Fi and the Internet of Things

Boards that talk to the internet: send a reading to your phone, watch a water tank from across town, and switch things from a web page.

  • After the Arduino Ladder
Planned

Raspberry Pi

A whole computer the size of a card. Cameras, servers and projects that need more than a small board can give.

  • After the ESP32 course
Planned

Code for makers

Python and MicroPython for people who build things: write programs that read sensors, store data and make decisions.

  • Alongside any board

Planned courses are not available yet. When one opens, its card on this page turns into a link.

Path

A learning path from your first click

You do not have to follow it in order, but each step makes the next one easier.

How

What every course here gives you

Learn alone, at your speed

Every step says what you should see, and what to do if you do not see it. There is no class to keep up with.

3D labs

Turn the board and every part in your hand, see inside the breadboard, and try ideas before you build them. See them all in the 3D Workshop.

Works offline

Copy the site to a USB stick and open it on any computer, with no internet at all.

Real projects

Every course ends with something a real person in Nzemaland asked for, tested on them, not only on you.

Free

Nothing to pay and nothing to sign up for. The Arduino Ladder's lessons are Creative Commons and its code is MIT.

For facilitators too

Running a group at the Hub or a school? Each course has a facilitator guide.
