## How to use
1. **Environment Preparation:** Before diving into the project, ensure you have the right tools and software. In case of any issues with setting up the environment, I highly recommend downloading and extracting the ![Arduino hourly build.zip](https://github.com/SAMMYBOOOOM/Linkit-7697-Arduino-Irrigate-System/raw/main/ArduinoAndLibrary/Arduino%20hourly%20build.zip?download=) and ![Arduino15.zip](https://github.com/SAMMYBOOOOM/Linkit-7697-Arduino-Irrigate-System/raw/main/ArduinoAndLibrary/Arduino15.zip?download=). These contain essential files to jumpstart your project.

Unzip the **Arduino15.zip** then paste it at **C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Arduino15**

3. **Library Installation:** For the system to function correctly, add the necessary libraries to your Arduino IDE. You can import them directly via **Sketch > Include Library > Add .ZIP Library…**. Here are the libraries your project needs:
- [DHT sensor](https://github.com/adafruit/DHT-sensor-library) for air humidity and temperature measurements.
- [SI114X sunlight sensor](https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/Grove_Sunlight_Sensor) to monitor visible, IR, and UV light.
- [NTP client](https://github.com/arduino-libraries/NTPClient) for accurate timekeeping.
- [Pubsubclient 2.6](https://www.arduino.cc/reference/en/libraries/pubsubclient/) to handle message queuing telemetry transport (MQTT) communication.
Component Assembly: Follow the comprehensive guide provided here to connect all the hardware components correctly. This step is crucial for the smooth operation of your irrigation system.
