I've done that and now i've got a new error message again. I'm an absolute beginner to Arduino or any board programming so i need all the help i can get. I have only gotten this board today and are trying to program it. I however had not soldered any wires to the board.

I think the first error is self explanatory: #error Wire library is not supported on this board

Check how you can configure the board to work with arduino app maybe?

[hanism11]

Any suggestion on a board that actually works? I really have no experience with all these.

[alexrus]

try NodeMCU V2 CP2102

[hanism11]

try NodeMCU V2 CP2102

I shall order one and try again. Thanks!

On a side note; once i am able to program it all i need to do is upload the Time.ino code and thats all right?

[alexrus]

yes, that should be it

[hanism11]

yes, that should be it

I tried another cable today and it worked! Managed to upload the code onto the board. Now all i need is my LCD display to test it out.

On the reed switch is there a specific way to wire it? Since it has two sides or does it not matter?

[alexrus]

it should not matter
