And also male/male jumper wires can be useful too (on the breadboard). Some male/female jumper wires, to plug the breadboard to the GPIO pins. This way you’ll not ask dozens of questions to know which component you really need (not easy when you just start with GPIO circuits). A breadboard kit will be perfect, with everything you need inside. A Raspberry Pi, I’m using the 3B+ for this post, but any model will be ok. Here is the recommended hardware you need to have to follow the rest of this tutorial (Amazon links): You may need them with some hardware modules that need them ( a screen like this one for example). You don’t need them in this tutorial, so you can skip this step.īut if you go further after this one it may save you time, as nobody explains this 🙂 sudo raspi-config Install the rpi.gpio package sudo apt install rpi.gpio. Start by updating your system sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade. 
Raspberry Pi Configurationīefore starting with the GPIO pins practice, we need to do a few steps on the Raspberry Pi to make sure that everything is ready:
If you don’t have it with your breadboard or GPIO kit, I recommend printing this image to use it later. It gives you the exact layout and role of each pin. The website pinout.xyz is useful for this.
