-I did not want to lead of talking about a simulator, if you have your Pico, have installed Thonny, have some basic parts, breadboard, LEDs, switches, wires etc, and you want to build something physical, please skip this section and come back to it later.

-While the resistor is selected, you can change its properties, just under the <color #00a2e8>blue +</color> button. Set the resistor to 330 ohms, and use the rotate symbol to get the correct orientation.

+Congratulations, you have created your first simulated project. You could now build a physical version of this project to do a real world test. Hopefully you can now see the value of this simulator, its great to test stuff before going to the effort of building something physical, which can be very time consuming. It's great to know if an idea you have will work, before you build it, only to find it does not :)
