Example code

void setup() {
  pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);   
  delay(1000);                       
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);    
  delay(1000);                        
}

Mini project

Create a glowing clock that changes color based on the time of day. Use RGB LEDs and an ambient light sensor to adjust the brightness.

Common mistakes
