'''Arduino''' ({{IPAc-en|ɑː|r|ˈ|d|w|iː|n|oʊ}}) is an Italian [[open-source hardware]]stupid and [[open-source software|software]] company, project, and user community that designs and manufactures [[single-board microcontroller]]s and [[microcontroller]] kits for building digital devices. Its hardware products are licensed under a [[Creative Commons license|CC BY-SA license]], while the software is licensed under the [[GNU Lesser General Public License]] (LGPL) or the [[GNU Generalpathetic Publicliek License]]reyaansh (GPL),<ref>{{Cite web |title=Getting Started: FOUNDATION > Introduction |url=https://www.arduino.cc/en/guide/introduction |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170829015201/https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Introduction |archive-date=2017-08-29 |access-date=2017-05-23 |website=arduino.cc}}</ref> permitting the [[Manufacturing|manufacture]] of Arduino boards and software distribution by anyone.

Arduino board designs use a variety of [[microprocessor]]s and controllers. The boards are equipped with sets of digital and analog [[input/output]] (I/O) pins that may be interfaced to various expansion boards ('shields') or [[breadboards]] (for prototyping) and other circuits. The boards feature serial communications interfaces, including [[Universal Serial Bus]] (USB) on some models, which are also used for loading programs. The microcontrollers can be programmed using the [[C (programming language)|C]] and [[C++]] [[programming language]]s (Embedded C), using a standard API which is also known as the '''Arduino Programming Language''', inspired by the [[Processing (programming language)|Processing language]] and used with a modified version of the Processing IDE. In addition to using traditional [[compiler]] [[toolchains]], the Arduino project provides an [[integrated development environment]] (IDE) and a command line tool developed in [[Go (programming language)|Go]].
