Introduction: Online 🌐Arduino Simulator From Wokwi for TeachersπŸ‘¨πŸ½β€πŸ«, StudentsπŸ‘¨πŸ½β€πŸŽ“πŸ‘©πŸ½β€πŸŽ“ and Enthusiasts - 2020 πŸ§™πŸ½β€β™€οΈπŸ’›

During this tough time due to COVID 19, buying/sourcing the components are challenging. Also, the parts have to be left for isolation for some time or sanitize the parcel. These are new challenges we were never heard of in the past. Especially, for hobbyists like us, it is becoming more and more frustrating.

COVID 19 cant stop spreading knowledge and happiness πŸ˜€

The good news is that most of the work can be done, projects can be built, tested without the need for any hardware. Here, we are presenting, for the Arduino community 😍 a free online Arduino emulator from https://wokwi.com/arduino/libraries and https://www.wokwi.com

You can find many elements all ready for use. New elements are added every week. You can leave a comment or message for specific additions as well.

Supplies

all you need is a Browser!!

Step 2: A Peek Through of Available Wokwi Elements

Wokwi Elements are presented here only for indicative purposes. there are many more added every week.

Step 3: Hello World! for Arduino Programming

Blinking an LED is as good as learning to write C program which prints "Hello World!"

In this example, one can learn how simple it is to get an Arduino blink an LED with a fixed delay.

This step presents the basic layout of the simulator as well.

Step 4: Adafruit SSD1306 Arduino Simulation on Wokwi.com

Step 5: DHT Sensor Library From Adafruit - Arduino Simulator From Wokwi.com

Source: https://wokwi.com/arduino/libraries/DHT-sensor-lib...

DHT sensor is a temperature and humidity sensor in one package. The DHT element works with most of the libraries available on GitHub. If you have any trouble running the simulation, leave a comment.

Step 6: FastLEDs Online Arduino Simulation From Wokwi.com

there are a lot of examples for the FASTLEDs simulation for Arduino. All the examples listed below are fully functional. Single row, matrix, double row, and many such examples are covered.
