Introduction

Note: This tutorial was originally written for KIT-13320 but applies to the KIT-14684. The only differences

are the included buttons and thickness of the resistor leads that are included in the kit. Overall, they are

functionally the same.

The SparkFun Inventor's Kit for Photon, also known as the SIK for Photon, is the latest and greatest in Internet of

Things kits. Whether you're a software developer just getting in to hardware, an electronics engineer learning

software, or somewhere in between, this kit will help you get your projects hooked up to the Internet in no time.

For an overview of the Photon RedBoard and a preview of the kinds of experiments you'll get to build with this kit,

check out the video below.

Set Aside Some Time - Each experiment in this kit has two parts, with the second half usually containing

an Internet-connected component. Please allow yourself ample time to complete each experiment. You may

not get through all the experiments in one sitting. Please understand that the second half of each experiment

is bonus material and relies on outside services, websites and technologies, to which some of you may not

have access.
