# Photoresistance Library for MicroBlocks
|
||
|
||
Welcome to the **Photoresistance Library** for MicroBlocks!
|
||
This library makes it easy for anyone—even if you don’t know how to code or use a computer much—to control a Photoresistance using simple blocks in MicroBlocks.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Features
|
||
|
||
- **Easy drag-and-drop blocks** for controlling your Photoresistance
|
||
- **No coding required**
|
||
- **Read Photoresistance Values**
|
||
- **Control the notes**
|
||
- **Beginner-friendly instructions**
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Getting Started
|
||
|
||
**What you need:**
|
||
- Spark microcontroller and connecting wires
|
||
- MicroBlocks IDE installed ([Download here](https://microblocks.fun/download/))
|
||
- A Photoresistance and basic connecting wires

|
||
## Installation
|
||
|
||
1. **Download the Photoresistance Library:**
|
||
Download the library file from [here](Spark_Analog.ubl).
|
||
|
||
2. **Open MicroBlocks IDE** on your computer.
|
||
|
||
3. **Add the Library:**
|
||
- Go to the library manager in MicroBlocks.

## How to Use
|
||
|
||
1. **Connect your Photoresistance** to your microcontroller’s pins (see your board’s pinout for details).
|
||
|
||
2. **Open MicroBlocks IDE** and make sure your board is connected.
|
||
|
||
3. **Find the Photoresistance blocks** in the blocks menu.
|
||
|
||
4. **Drag the blocks** you want to use into your script area.
|
||
- For example:
|
||
- “Set Pin Value
|
||
- Read Photoresistance Values"
|
||
|
||
5. **Click the green flag** or “Run” to start controlling your Photoresistance!
|

## Example Project
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
You can use the reading from the photoresistor as an input value for any output.
