# Breakout Garden

Software and examples for the Pimoroni [Breakout Garden](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/breakout-garden-hat-i2c-spi), 
a simple way to build projects using [breakouts](https://shop.pimoroni.com/collections/pimoroni-breakouts), with 
absolutely no soldering required.

## Installing

Breakout Garden doesn't require any software of its own, but each breakout you use will need a Python library.

We've created a handy script to get you started:

1. Plug in all of your Breakout Garden-compatible breakouts
2. Run `wget https://github.com/pimoroni/breakout-garden/archive/master.zip` to download software. 
3. Run `unzip master.zip` to unzip the software. 
4. Run `cd breakout-garden-master` to enter code folder. 
5. Run `sudo ./install.sh`
6. Step through the install process
7. Enjoy!

## Examples

We've put together a few fun [examples](examples/) to show what's possible with Breakout Garden. Each example 
has its own README telling you about it, which breakouts are required, and about how to use it.
