 You have likely encountered LEDs endlessly in your everyday life: commonly used as a "power light", which when lit, indicates the device is powered on, among many, MANY, **MANY** other applications. You have likely encountered LEDs endlessly in your everyday life: commonly used as a "power light", which when lit, indicates the device is powered on, among many, MANY, **MANY** other applications.

-Before you seek to actually test your circuit, please get verification to proceed from the class channel on discord by posting a clear picture of everything. There are MANY moving parts, and especially as we have our first exposure, it is best to insert as many quality control checks as possible to ensure the greatest chances of mistakes are mitigated.+Please keep in mind:
  
 +  * EACH LED needs to be interfaced with a unique GPIO pin
 +  * EACH LED needs a corresponding resistor (no sharing!) Forgetting to use the resistor can lead to damage to the LED!
 +  * ground connections can be shared (we call this "common ground")
 +  * take note of which GPIO pin you are using, so can update the led1.c program
