If you just want to measure light using the built-in facility then you just need a micro:bit.
When it comes to the choice of resistor to use, I have used a 2.2kΩ resistor here, but a 1kΩ or 10kΩ resistor will also work, but will change the range of readings.
For bread-boarding with unusual non-header-friendly surfaces, these cables will be your best friends! No longer will you have long strands of alligator clips that are grabbing little...
