 # Pico Weather
 
 ![Woodpecker CI badge](https://builds.metaunix.net/api/badges/92/status.svg)

 Raspberry Pi Pico app to read BME280 sensor data and send it to Home Assistant.
 
 Made in Go with [TinyGo](https://tinygo.org/).
 
-## Requirements
+## Hardware
+
+The following hardware is what I used for a deployment:
+
+* Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DRJXPPWL
+  * The **W** is VERY important, as without networking it can't reach Home Assistant!
+  * Also a Raspberry Pi Pico W *should* work too, but I haven't tested it yet
+* Waveshare Bosch BME280 sensor: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Q47DFXS
+* Elegoo SSD1306 LCD: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FSRQG23K
+
+Most (or all?) of these components can be swapped for equivalent components. You just need to make sure the code is compatible with whatever board you choose (not likely), is a genuine BME280 sensor, and an SSD1306 display.
+
+Support for other hardware types may come in the future, but if there's a specific sensor or board you're in submit an issue or pull request!
+
+### Prototyping
+
+To help with debugging/testing deployments, I also used these components:
+
+* Elegoo 400-pin Breadboard: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EV640I6
+* Freenove Raspberry Pi Pico Breakout Board: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BFB53Y2N
+* Elegoo 20cm Jumper Cables 120 count: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EV70C78
+
+## Software Deployment

-## Deployment
+### Steps
 
-1. Clone this git repository `git clone https://git.metaunix.net/gballan/pico-weather`.
+1. Clone this git repository `git clone https://git.metaunix.net/BitGoblin/pico-weather`.
 2. Copy `config.go.example` to `config.go` and modify the values to match your environment.
 3. Hold down the **BOOTSEL** button on your Raspberry Pi Pico 2W.
 4. Plug in your Pico to a USB port on your PC.
