# Required Hardware

XOD is not tied to a particular vendor of hardware. It is compatible with
various controller boards, sensors, and peripherals devices that can be
programmed with Arduino IDE.

Nevertheless, for the best experience with this tutorial we recommend you
using [Arduino Starter Kit](https://store.arduino.cc/usa/arduino-starter-kit?utm_source=xodio&utm_medium=xod&utm_campaign=tutorial)
because it contains all the components you’ll need to complete the lessons.
