PLanning  Overview

Your goals, block diagrams, and flow charts took you from outlandish goals to concrete objectives and methods to get there. The planning section is dedicated to transform your block diagrams into parts and actual hardware you can buy. Once these parts are selected and you know how you will connect them, you can move on to your schematic.
plans are nothing; planning is everything
