  1. Download the code from this repository. Go back to the home page and click "ZIP" or "Clone in Mac".

  2. Turn your robot over or raise it so that it can't run away by accident.

  3. Load CanDo-Line-Following-Robot/simple/simple.ino in the Arduino program and upload it. The moment the code finishes uploading, the robot should start to move.

  4. Cover the photo resistors with your finger or a piece of dark tape. The wheel on the same side should slow down. If they other wheel slows down, reverse your A0 and A1 connections.
