New Little Bits How-To

Everything is mostly the same from our other little bits but this kit has a couple of different pieces like the cloudbit. The new Little Bits are the Smart Home Kit and the Arduino Coding Kit. The Smart Home Kit is the one we the tech group mostly played around with. The way its works is that from a website you can control the lights, use the coffee machine, and some other things like open your garage door and assort of other stuff.
