I am currently working on a breadboard based 7-Segment project myself (I am just getting started tough) Do you have any tricks to share?

HAlex27817yI'm new on electronics, I'd like to start from something simple.
Is this a kit? If yes, do you mind sharing the name? Thank you! -
@HAlex My University custom-built this kit to be as cheap as possible (because they pay for it) so I wouldn't recommend it even if you could buy it.
Something like this is easy to find yourself, though! Buy a breadboard, some wire, some resistors, some LEDs and some buttons or switches... if you buy it all from the same place online they probably will package it together and you won't need to pay a bunch for shipping.
It's difficult to understand electronics, however. Quite the learning curve. I would YouTube some tutorials for a bit before buying anything.
If you have a raspberry pi, Google Raspberry Pi GPIO projects! Thats very fun stuff!
I broke my 7-segment and now it's just saying "GG"
