To build this example project, you'll be using an internet-connected Arduino board that will send a text message. We've chosen to use:

An Arduino Uno R3

An Adafruit CC3000 WiFi Shield

A USB A - B cable

A push button

A 10k Ω resistor

A half-size breadboard

Some wires

You'll also need a Temboo account and a Twilio account. To set up your Temboo account (if you don't already have one) you can create one for free here.  You can create a free Twilio account here.

Finally, make sure that you have the latest version of Temboo's Arduino library installed; if you don't, you can download it here.
