Reflection

This week’s tutorials helped me become more familiar with using inputs and sensors. I also became more comfortable in wiring and coding. I found it challenging to create a circuit on the breadboard from scratch. For this exercise, I referred to Fritzing circuit diagram in tutorials as a starting point, then add a second component into the mix. This approach smoothed the wiring progress a lot.

If I were to do it again, I would use a temperature sensor that tells me about the water in the electric kettle is warm. Additionally, it would be great if the LED can be placed on my desk. Otherwise, this connected device would not help me a lot if the LED is set by the kettle on the kitchen counter.
