Best Kit for starters and hobbiest till now !

Hi Folks, How r u guys doing.

Their have been countless people/student who want to get their hands dirty and build something fun or people who just want to learn electronics, but, they don't know which kit to go for. This is where our experience comes handy image So I would like you all to participate in this pool to vote the best startes/hobbiest kit available in the market image

 

What I intended to ask is for a community opinion for the best GENERIC board for starters to electronics. Asked differently, Which board did you first got your hands on which actually helped you learn Embedded and do those coolll things you ever dream to do.

 

Things to consider

-> Cost

-> Support

-> Community

-> Features

-> Ease to use

-> Online workshop/e-learning

-> and whatever you guys can think of image

 

Thanks a lot image image
